_________________________________________________________________________________

I make this dish when I get bored eating veggies/fish (not dried). Dried Mackerels have lot of salt. One should be careful while adding salt to the chutney or curry made out of Dried Mackerels. Once u add dried Mackerel leave it for sometime and then taste and add salt to the dish.

Ingredients

• 4 Dried Mackrels
• 2 cups grated Coconut
• 1 small-sized Onion
• 9-10 Red Chilies
• Small piece of Tamarind
• Water
• Salt according to your taste

Method

1. Fry Dried Mackrel on the flame of the gas stove directly (shown in the picture).
   
2. Let it cool. Now make small pieces of the fried dried Mackrel and keep it aside.
   
3. Grind grated Coconut, chopped Onion, red Chilies, Tamarind, Salt(sligtly less as dried Mackrel is has salt), and little water.
4. Let this chutney be little coarse.
   
5. Transfer the Chutney into a vessel.
6. Mix the Mackrel Pieces with the Chutney.
7. Spicy and tasty Dried Mackrel Chutney (Konkani: Sukile Bangade Chutney) is ready!
