Blend grated coconut, gram dahl until a coarse mixture forms. Then add ginger, green chili, salt and a splash of water before blending them into a smooth paste.
Add oil to a small pan on low-medium heat and add mustard and cumin seeds.
Once they start popping, add curry leaves and wait from them to crackle.
Then, add dried red chili, let them roast and get crispy in the oil on low heat for 2 minutes. Make sure they don't burn!
Transfer the coconut chutney into a bowl and pour over the oil mixture. Give it a good mix and it's ready to serve!
