SMALL ONION CHUTNEY

                                  Small Onion chutney is a tasty side dish for idly,.dosai.The toughest part is peeling the skin of small onions. Usually I will soak the small onions for 15 mins in water which will be easier for removing the skin. 

I have used red chilly powder but dry red chilly can be used for preparing this chutney.It can be refridgerated and stays good for 2 days if properly handled.

INGREDIENTS

Small onion	2 cups
Tamarind	A small pinch
Ginger	¼ piece
Red chilly powder	1 tsp
