Chutney pudi can be called a dry form of chutney and comes in very handy when you are unable to make fresh chutney. It is usually mixed with ghee or gingelly oil before serving. There are several varieties of chutney pudi. This flax chutney pudi is probable the healthiest amongst all.

The most commonly made chutney pudi blends is a mixture of Bengal gram (chana dal), split black gram (urad dal), dried coconut, curry leaves, dry red chilli, and tamarind. There are several other forms of chutney pudi blends. For example, peanuts, flax seeds, garlic, sesame seeds, roasted Bengal gram (puthani), to name a few. Here, I am sharing the recipe for chutney pudi with flax seeds.
