Notes
Water can be added if required depending upon the thickness of the mixture.
Onion can be added to it to bring more taste to it. But remember that if you add onion, the chutney cannot be kept fresh for more days. To keep it fresh for longer time, skip the onion.
Mustard Oil is optional and you can use it if you wish. In the above process I have used the mustard oil.
Instead of using whole Jeera seeds, we can also use the roasted cumin powder. The powder is prepared by roasting the cumin seeds in tawa and then grinding it to make a smooth powder.
