Tips & Tricks
Use fresh curd for the best flavor and texture.
Dry roast til on a low flame just until they release aroma. Over-roasting can make them bitter.
A touch of jaggery or dates balances the nuttiness of sesame and gives a fasting-friendly flavor.
This chutney goes well with sabudana khichdi, rajgira paratha, or aloo dishes during fasting.
