Udaka, Khara Chutney and Jolada Mudde

This is no party food. Jolada Mudde (Sorghum flour rounds, click to see recipe) and udaka are simple or comfort food. With little khara chutney (spicy chutney) your blocked senses gain more oxygen supply :D
Udaka is well mashed togaribele/split pigeon peas with little kharachutney and lemon juice. No tampering business...Dip hot hot joldada mudde in udaka and in khara chutney (if you dare to do it..I just show it ) and gulp it down... again no chewing please....just gulp in down! Everything should be made and eaten hot hot..so no left overs also


ಖಾರ ಚಟ್ನಿ/Spicy Chutney 
Caution : Very hot chutney....

You need the following :
Green Chillies : 2 cups (washed, dried, snapped into 3 pieces and fried in a tsp of oil)

Wash green chillies, pat them dry on a kitchen towel. Break each chili  into 2-3 pieces. Heat a wok/pan and add these chillies with a tsp of oil and fry them till chillies get white blisters. Cool them and then measure.
Grind everything to a coarse paste in a mixer grinder. Store in a clean container in your refrigerator. Can be stored up to a month if refrigerated.

  13. In 1970, my father got transferred to a small village near Chitradurga and I got exposed to some new sensations in food. Jolada mudde, Khara chutney were pretty common. I even got to try raw green chile for side(it was hot, I tell you!) just as my buddies!

    While I prefer Raagi mudde, I think the Jolada rotti has a very unique taste and I pine for it now and then. And, then there is the whole new experience of dining in Khanavali!

    Your post is making me reminisce my childhood days :)

  14. @ Anonymous,
    ehehe..Jolada mudde is bland compared to ragi mudde which is tasty. Probably that is the reason why spicy chutney suits jolada mudde well also the health benefits of eating jola is more compared to ragi. This is very common in the districts of Chitradurga, Davangere etc...and we learned it from our neighbors in Chitradurga. Nice to have you here..keep visiting TOM

  23. Wow Just tried that chutney!! It is fantastic and truly Khara!! I did add a bit of tamrind and Jaggery to it as I like my balance of super Khara, sweet and sour!! Reminded me of chutneys I had as a child growing up in Davanagere.....
