Spicy Garlic Chutney-Lasanyu Marchu

Spicy Garlic Chutney or Lasanyu Marchu as we Gujaratis call it, is a MUST HAVE condiment in my household. It’s similar to Thecha Chutney from Maharastra but I will always prefer the Gujarati version. As far back as I can remember a jar of garlic chutney was always in our fridge. I put this in everything from dal, spreading it on my dosa to adding a dollop of it into my pav bhaji! In fact, give me some lasanyu marchu with roti and I’m set! Growing up my family would mix cream cheese and this chutney together, slather it on some Italian bread and bake it! The adults would enjoy it with their cuppa chai and we kids would eat it with milk! Yes! I was introduced to spicy food very early on in life! It’s such a versatile chutney that you won’t know how you’ve gone without it all your life! I’ve added a few notes at the end of the recipe to better help you as well!  Do try it out and let me know what you think and don’t forget to tag me @themommyspice on Instagram if you do! I love seeing all of your creations!

Instant Pot Kheema Mattar Veg & Non-Veg Version

This Instant Pot Kheema will be a hit in your household! These days Instant Pot is all the rage! It is so versatile and handy when you’re busy and always on the go. My Instant Pot is a lifesaver. Baby J requires or rather cries for my attention ALL THE TIME these days, luckily Instant Pot takes the hassle out of having to babysit a meal on the stove. I have made this recipe for years on my stovetop and recently started to make it in my IP. I guarantee it will come out exactly the same if not better in the IP! In the past I have made a big batch of Kheema and used it all week for meal prep, I just repurposed the kheema! I’ll post more about that later. I hope you enjoy the dish!
