First of all, take out the fresh coconut from the shell and chop it into small pieces.
In a grinding jar, add chopped coconut, green chillies, chana dal/daria, salt and ginger piece. Now with the help of little water, grind it into a smooth paste and transfer it into a bowl.
Heat oil in a small pan on medium heat and add asafoetida and mustard seeds it. Once they crackle, add dried red chilli and curry leaves. let them roast for a minute. Add this tempering to the coconut paste and mix well.
Notes
You can use roasted chana too instead of chana dal/Daria.
You can store this chutney for one week easily in fridge.
Don’t add too much water while grinding otherwise chutney will result be of runny consistency (which you do not want)
