There are many different ways to this simple Red Garlic Chutney Recipe, but the most common way is to make it with red chilies and fresh young garlic. The red chilies are soaked and ground with garlic with additional herbs and spices. Optionally, the ground paste can be fried with oil to increase the longevity of the chutney but not required.
