I also love onion chutney. There is another one that is always bright red and simple but greast taste. I think it is just vinegar, sliced white onions and chile/chili. I must try this recipe of yours.

I think the color of the chutney depends on the color of the onion that we use also the amount of onion that we use. Maybe try little less onion next time.

Hi Jayashree,
This chutney is one of my favourite. My grandma makes this onion chutney( 'karupu vengaaya chutney' i used to call like this), I love to add gingerly oil( nallennai) to this and eat with hot idly.
But, When i tried making, my chutney looked pinkish and not brown, your recipe sounds exactly the same. I will surely try and see..
