Preparation Method:
1.    Heat 3 spoons of oil in a pan and gently fry one after the other Herekayi, green chillies,  grated coconut, and asafoetida and allow it to cool.
2.    Grind the fried items along with tamarind, turmeric, coriander leaves, boiled toor dal and salt.
3.    Heat 1 spoon of and add mustard seeds and allow it to splutter and add curry leaves and fry them. Add ground paste and fry nicely.
4.    Herekayi chatni is ready to be served with rice, chapati and even dosa.
