Tomato chutney is one of the most popular South Indian Chutney recipe which goes well with idli, dosa, and utappam. I learnt this recipe from my Mom and she learnt this from her aunty. This chutney is prepared when they go for tours as this will retain its texture and flavour even for 1 week. The main ingredients for making this tomato chutney are Tomatoes and Gingely oil. Just give a try and you will love it.
Ingredients needed to make Tomato Chutney
1. Ripe tomatoes - 52. Mustard seeds - 1 tsp.
3. Round Chilly - 2
4. Gingely oil - 1 tbsp.
5. A sprig of curry leaves
Method for making Tomato Chutney
1. Wash and cut the tomatoes into small pieces.2. Heat oil in a kadai add the tomatoes and saute well till they become mashy. This may take about 3 to 5 minutes.
3. Allow this to cool.
4. Now grind this in a mixer. Use the big jar as the tomatoes are watery and become overloaded in the small jar and may leak out.
5. Heat 1 tbsp. of gingelly oil and splutter the mustard seeds, add the curry leaves and the ground chutney from the mixer.
6. Let this boil for 3 to 5 minutes or till they become thick in consistency.
Now the tomato chutney is ready to be served with hot idlis and dosas.
Note: While serving you can add little gingely oil amd mix just as you do for idli podi.
You can add more red chillies if you want little spicy.
