Ingredients
1. coconut dry or fresh

Take fresh coconut and grate it.
as per your choice add garlic + green chilly + ginger + salt
process everything in mixer-grinder.
add some water if required.
Fresh chatny taste well but don't have shelf life more than one day.
we can easily store it in refrigerator but taste is degrade after time.
If you want to store chatny in fridge then don't add salt in it. add salt when you want to use it.
