A delicious side to serve with idlis and dosa. Can be served mild to very hot!!!!!!!!!Up to you!! Can be stored for 2 to 3 days in an air tight container in the fridge however it does tend to loose its flavour.
3 to 4 tomatos (medium sized and diced)
1/2 cup of peanuts (skinless and roasted)If the peanuts are salted remember to taste the chutney before you add salt to avoid excess salt.
Aprox 1 tablespoon of tamarind paste (you may need to add more or less depending on the tartness of the tomatos and your taste buds.)
1 tsp of cumin seeds
2 green chillis (Add more if you want it hot)
2 tsp of ginger garlic paste
1 tsp oil
1/2 tsp of sugar
fresh coriander leaves (optional)
salt to taste
WHAT YOU DO:
1. Roast the peanuts over medium heat. Be careful not to burn. (Skip this step if the peanuts are already roasted)
2. Heat oil and add the cumin seeds followed by the green chilli and cook for aprox 5 mins. Set aside to cool.
3. Add tomatos (diced) and ginger garlic paste to pan and cook down till most of the water has gone. Aprox 5 to 7 mins. Set aside to cool.
4. In a blender/food processor add the peanuts, cumin/chilli mix, tomatos, salt and sugar and coriander leaves. Process till smooth.
Great served with idli or dosa.
