Instant Tomato Chutney-a fantastic pair with Dosa n Idly

When returning home at midnight, after some long tiring journey, after trying out various foods outside.. coming back home.. and gobbling this with dosa, these are the moments to enjoy.

If the tomatoes are ripening and sour, it's a double delight. But if the tomatoes are hard and bland, add a little tamarind to compensate for the sourness, but this is optional.

One more optional ingredient in this recipe is Gingelly oil; adding this would boost the flavor. But substituting it with regular cooking oil would also bring out good results.

This tomato chutney is versatile; I love to spread this chutney as a layer while making veggie bread sandwiches.

My mom adds leftover tomato chutney to the Kuzhambu she makes, which has got excellent proven results.

How to make instant tomato chutney

Instant Tomato Chutney, steps and procedures

1. Wash and clean tomato. Peel and wash onion. Take red chilies to the amount you can bear the heat with and adjust it accordingly. I usually go for 3 red chilies.

If the tomatoes are ripening and sour, the results would be best. Cut them into big chunks so that it is easier to grind.

2. In the mixer/Grinder, grind tomato, onion, red chilies, and the required amount of salt. There is no need to add water, as the tomato itself brings the consistency of the chutney. Grind it till it becomes a smooth paste.

3. Add gingelly or any cooking oil you choose in a small pan. And temper mustard seeds and urad dal. Once mustard seeds start crackling, add curry leaves.

When curry leaves change color slightly, add this hot tempering onto the ground chutney. Let's enjoy the sizzling sound it makes.

Serve instant Tomato Chutney with Idly, dosa. I can also give you one more fabulous idea of using this chutney as a base for making bread sandwiches.
