Garlic chutney, also referred to as lahsun chutney, lehsun chutney and bellulli chutney, is a chutney, originating from the Indian subcontinent, made from fresh garlic, dry or fresh coconut, groundnuts and green or red chili peppers.[1][2][3][4] Cumin and tamarind are also sometimes used as ingredients.[3][5][6][7] It is prepared in both wet and dried forms.[8] The wet variety is made with fresh grated coconut and is typically used immediately.

Dry variety

The dry variety is a commercial product purveyed in packets and jars.[9] Homemade dried garlic chutney can be stored in bottles and will last up to four weeks. When refrigerated, it can be kept for up to six months.[8] It is eaten either dry or mixed with yogurt,[3] curd, buttermilk or vegetable oil. It is sometimes prepared in a powdered form.

Uses

Garlic chutney is used for cooking in many Indian (especially Maharashtra,[3][10] Gujarat, Punjab, Rajasthan[11] and northern Karnataka[12]) and Pakistani homes.[4] it is often eaten with fresh, hot bhakri (a flat, unleavened roti made from flour of grains such as jowar, bajra, nachni, etc.).[3] Garlic chutney is sometimes served as an accompaniment to chaats and khandvi.[10][13][14]
