We're sharing a special GSB (Goud Saraswat Brahmin) style Konkani recipe called Bhajil Mirsangi Phova Chutney. "Phovu" in Konkani translates to beaten rice, hence the name "Phova Chutney." In this recipe, red chilies are fried in a little oil and then pounded with grated coconut and other spices.

This recipe requires minimal ingredients and is incredibly easy to make, making it perfect for busy weekdays. Enjoy this delicious and satisfying snack with your loved ones!

Serves - 2

Ingredients

  1. Coconut oil - 1 tbsp
  2. Byadgi chilli - 1 for color
  3. Ramnad chilli - 1 for spiciness
  4. Mustard seeds - 1 tbsp
  5. Salt - ½ tbsp
  6. Tamarind - a pinch
  7. Grated coconut - 50 gram
  8. Jaggery - 25 gram
  9. Thin flattened rice - 50 gram (beaten rice)

Method

  1. Fry the chilies: In a pan, heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil over low heat. Fry the red chilies until they change color. This will take less than a minute. Transfer them to a plate to cool.
  2. Temper the Mustard Seeds: Add 1 tablespoon of mustard seeds to the same pan. Let them splutter over low heat. Immediately turn off the heat to prevent the mustard seeds from burning, which will make the chutney bitter.
  3. Grind the Ingredients: In a  mortar and pestle, add salt and the fried red chilies. Pound them lightly. Add the fried mustard seeds and pound gently. Then, add grated coconut, jaggery, and tamarind. Pound all the ingredients together until well combined.
  4. Mix with Beaten Rice: Add the flattened rice (phovu) to the ground mixture and mix thoroughly.
  5. Serve: The Bhajil Mirsangi Phova Chutney is ready to serve. This recipe typically serves 2 people.
