The recipe for this was shared by Ms. Padma, my satsangha sister, who mentioned that she got it from our other satsangha sister, Ms. Rekha. We enjoyed this dish at Padma’s house with chapathi and steaming hot rice and ghee. It was simply delicious. Thanks, Padma and Rekha, for the recipe.
In my house, it’s always my husband who makes chutney. He listened carefully while Padma explained the recipe and prepared it last week. We had the chutney with idli, then with dosa the next day, and on the third day, we enjoyed it with steaming hot rice and a dollop of ghee. Remarkably, the chutney stays fresh for almost 5-6 days in the refrigerator. It is quite a healthy recipe also.
The ingredients list is very short.

Composer : Sri Sreepada Rajaru Ankita : Ranga Vittala Book Ref : SriPadarajara Kritigalu by G Varadarajarao
This composition is based on incidents from Sri Bhagavatha Purana and other Epics. The first paragraph is about Narakasura from the Bhagavatha Purana. Second paragraph is a story of Kartaviryarjuna in Harivamsa Purana and Mahabharata. In the third stanza there is a reference to the Kaurava-Pandava battle of the Mahabharata. Sri Sreepada Rajaru says, “Remember how the stubborn Kauravas, who experience everything by themselves without giving even the tip of the needle, did not take a single piece of land while leaving this materialistic world.”The fourth stanza is about Nahusha.
In the fifth and last paragraph, opposite to the above four characters, again using the same Puranas, Sri Sreepada Rajaru talks about the ideal characters of the stories like Dhruva, Vibhishana and Hanumantha, who were of great merit (Tungaguna), showed us with their utmost devotion to lord, how to get the blessings. In the same way, if we follow the path that leads to Lord Ranga Vittala we will also be able to get the blessings of Lord.
