Welcome!!

First and foremost I would like to convey my apologies to the readers of my blog, for the delay in the post. I was on vacation. Hence I was unable to post though I surely did prepare today’s recipe during my vacation & in turn was showered with accolades for the efforts. 🙂

Today, I shall present to you the recipe of Onion Chutney. This is extremely flavorsome recipe. It can add its flavor to any other boring dish. 😉 Hence, you can serve this with rice or chapathi or convert boring bread into yummy sandwich. Therefore you get many options while packing your lunch or kid’s lunch box by preparing this dish.

This recipe can be enhanced based on your liking. One can add capsicum also to the same recipe or replace the onion totally to get capsicum chutney.

Hence this recipe is here to impress both the onion & capsicum lovers.
