dahi ki chatni recipe | dahi chutney recipe | dahi lahsun ki chutney with detailed photo and video recipe. a unique and flavoured condiment recipe made with a generous amount of garlic topped with curd or yoghurt. it is a popular spicy condiment from the rajasthani cuisine which is ideally served with roti or chapati. the chatni is loaded with spice and garlic but the addition of yoghurt balances the taste and flavour.
lately, i have started getting a lot of requests to post the red chutney recipe which i have been using as a prop in my other videos. basically, whenever i make a video on snack or breakfast i use this red coloured chatni as my side prop to dip the main dish. the main reason i use it is due to the fact that its bright red in colour with a smooth texture consistency. it easily gels with video frame and makes this dish appealing. i generally make it in bulk and store it in a large container and refrigerate it. be it for the recipe videos, or for may day to day breakfast, lunch or dinner, i use it frequently. particularly, the combination of dahi chutney with chapati is just heaven. you may also use it with dal rice combination too as a spicy side dish.
furthermore, i would also add some more tips, suggestions and variations to dahi ki chatni recipe. firstly, i have added 10 kashmiri red chillies for this chatni recipe. it may sound a lot, but it is essential for this recipe. having said that, if you like to lower, you can reduce the number. secondly, while adding the yoghurt you need to whisk it properly to make a smooth textured paste. otherwise, it may curdle and you may not get the desired smooth consistency. lastly, while handling the chutney you need to use dry spoons and avoid any moisture contact. also, preserve it in a dry place for longer shelf life.
