Poondu Chutni, or garlic chutney, is a flavorful condiment originating from Indian cuisine, particularly popular in southern regions like Tamil Nadu. Made with garlic as the star ingredient, it often includes dried red chilies, tamarind, sesame oil, and spices such as mustard seeds and curry leaves. The chutney is typically bold and spicy, pairing perfectly with dosas, idlis, or rice dishes. Garlic, the primary component, is celebrated for its health benefits, including aiding digestion, reducing inflammation, and supporting heart health due to its antioxidant properties. However, the inclusion of oil and salt can make it calorie-dense, so moderation is key. Poondu Chutni combines robust flavor with nutritional benefits, making it a beloved choice to add zest to meals when enjoyed responsibly.
