Wash the chow - chows and take the peel (skin) separately.
Heat oil in a frying pan and add the mustard seeds into the oil and let them burst.
Then add the red chilli, thuvara parippu, chow-chow peels and stir it well and cover it with a lid.
When colour of this mix turns golden, and the peels become very nice, add asafoetida power and salt into it and stir the mix well and put off the stove.
Change the mix into a plate and let it cool.
After about 10 minutes, grind it in a mixer adding some water.
Chow - chow peel (skin) chutney is ready and can serve with dosa / idly / uppuma / cooked rice etc.

Myself, Sobha Kesavan, a retired Accountant in a MNC based in Delhi, where I was staying for 26 years. Afterwards, moved to Bangalore and stayed there for about 4 years and then shifted to my native place ( in Thrissur district), Kerala, along with my husband. My two sons and both daughters-in-law are working out of Kerala as Software Engineers.
I have immense passion for gardening and have been doing it since my stay in Delhi and most of
the ingredients (vegetables) used in my recipes are home grown. I am interested in cooking mostly North Indian and South Indian cuisines. The recipes shared in pachakam.com from my end would definitely tickle your taste buds.
I will be always looking forward for your valuable feedbacks or suggestions as there is always room for improvement.
