Recipe for Kempu Khara

In today’s blog, I am sharing the recipe for kempu khara. In my home, mom always used to prepare varieties of chutneys which come in handy when there are no veggies at home or whenever she is busy. Whenever I have to go to my parent’s home for some days, I just prepare kempu khara and store it in the fridge, so that my husband can enjoy it with dry jowar rotis and rice without any effort. You can easily store it outside for up to 7 days. I have already shared multiple chutney recipes. It can be prepared om just 15 minutes without much effort. Now, without any delay, let us jump into the recipe
