Almond Coconut Chutney (Badam Coconut Chammanthi) is a healthy and creamy south Indian breakfast side dish with dosa, idly or vada. It has more rich and milky taste than normal coconut chutney. In my family all of us love this creamy mildly spicy taste with soft idly and crispy dosa. It is very simple recipe and easy to make in a few minutes so I always prepare this too along with Sambar. Check my pictures you can realize that how easy to make this 🙂 also enjoy my quick video before entering ingredients box 🙂
