Tomato and Onion Chutney

 Tomato and Onion chutney is a creamier texture chutney which is super easy to make. This chutney is a combination of two vegetables i.e Tomato and Onion and goes well with every kind of  breakfast like Idli, Dosa, Uppma, Vada etc. At the end you can do tempering just to make it more flavorsome but it taste good without tempering too.

Ingredients:

1 Large Tomato
1 Large Onion
1/4 tsp Mustard seed
1/4 tsp Urad dal
1/4 tsp Turmeric powder
1/2 tsp Red chilli powder
2-3 Green chillies
few Curry leaves
Salt to taste
Coconut oil ( Any Oil )

Method:

• In a pan heat some Oil, add mustard seeds when it starts crackling, add urad dal and curry leaves .
• Then add green chillies, roughly chopped Onions. Saute till onion turns translucent.
• Then add roughly chopped Tomato and saute till it becomes little mushy.
• Add turmeric powder, red chilli powder and salt. Mix everything for 1-2 second and switch off the flame.
• Let the mixture cool down. Once it cools down, grind it and do not add water.
• Check the taste and add more salt if required.
• Pour the chutney into a serving bowl.
• At this point you can temper the chutney by adding 1 tblsp oil in a pan then add mustard seed, dry red chilli and curry leaves. I have skipped as it taste good without tempering too.
• Serve with Idli, Dosa, Upma, Vada or even can spread on Sandwich.
