What is Green Coconut Chutney?
also known as Coconut Cilantro Chutney, Nariyal Dhaniya Chutney and Green Indian Chutney. The combination of coconut + cilantro gives it such a refreshing, light taste and makes it a perfect side with Indian snacks like samosa, pakora, tikkas, sandwiches, and ofcourse ALL South Indian food like dosa, vada, idli, uttapam (yummmmmmm). Chutneys are an integral part of Indian Cuisine and we cannot imagine snacks without one or even main dishes 🙂

How to Make Green Coconut Chutney:
Notes on Storing / Freezing: It’s one chutney is always there in my house and I have made it using all kinds of coconuts like dry coconut powder, fresh coconut flakes, or dry coconut flakes. I store it in an Air-Tight container keep it up to 2-3 days in the fridge or you can make the saltless version and store in the freezer for 2-3 weeks. For Freezer, I make it saltless as that helps keep the taste fresh once defrosted, just add salt before serving.

Coconut: you can use any kind of coconut from fresh coconut chunks to dry or frozen coconut. If Using Fresh Coconut, remember to remove any black or discolored skin at the back of the white coconut. Dry Coconut Powder, please make sure it’s not extremely dry or old as that will not result in a smooth chutney. Roasted Peanuts: you can skip if you need to and can add raw cashews instead. Light Oil - you can use ghee if non vegan
