Add ½ teaspoon mustard and let them crackle. Keep the flame to a low. When the mustard seeds crackle, add 1 green chili (finely chopped) and 1 teaspoon finely chopped ginger.Saute till the raw aroma of ginger goes away. This takes a few seconds.Then add 6 to 7 curry leaves and 1 pinch asafoetida (hing). mix very well.Add the besan slurry. stir and mix very well.Simmer this besan chutney mixture on a low to medium-low flame.Keep stirring at intervals so that lumps do not form and the mixture does not stick on the bottom of the pan.Simmer for 6 to 7 minutes. The besan chutney will thicken. Check the taste and the rawness of the besan should not be there. If you feel rawness in the besan, then cook for a few more minutes. In case the chutney looks thick, then add some more water to it.Once the besan chutney has cooked, then add ½ teaspoon sugar. mix very well.Switch off the flame and then add 2 to 3 teaspoons lemon juice or add as required.Again mix very well.
