- Taste the chutney and add more salt, sugar or lemon juice if required. Stir and mix well.
- Heat oil in a small frying pan. Keep heat to a low.
- Add the mustard seeds and urad dal.
- Let the mustard seeds splutter and the urad dal get browned.
- Add asafoetida and curry leaves.
- Fry for a few seconds until the curry leaves become crisp.
- Pour this tempering mixture together with the oil, over the Coriander Coconut Chutney and stir to combine.

Notes
- For a spicy chutney, add more green chillies.
- You can also add 1 to 2 small to medium-sized garlic cloves in the chutney.
- To get a slightly sour taste, add a small piece of tamarind.
- For a thicker chutney add less water while blending.
- Omit adding roasted chana dal if you do not have them. Add less water when grinding, if you do not add the roasted chana dal.
