Onion Tomato Chutney

When you are bored of preparing the same old coconut chutney or the pudina chutney, then give a try to this onion tomato chutney. It is very easy to prepare and tastes just awesome and needs just onions and tomatoes from the pantry.
So if you are running short of time or running short of coconut or pudina, then this is the best compliment for your dosas or idlis or even parathas. We had this with palak parathas and it turned out to be an amazing combination.



Ingredients:
2 ripe medium size tomatoes
1 medium sized onion
7-8 petals of Garlic
1 green chilly
Karipatta (Curry leaves)
1 teaspoon jaggery
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 teaspoon cumin seeds (Jeera)
Hing
Salt
1 tablepsoon Oil

Procedure:
1. Roughly chop the tomatoes and onions.
2. In the mixer, add the chopped tomatoes and onions, garlic and green chilli and grind it to a fine paste.
3. Next add pinch of salt to this paste and keep it for boiling. Add little water if needed.
4. Boil it for around 5-10 minutes to cook the tomatoes and the onions.
5. Once the color changes from bright red to dull red, add the jaggery and mix well
6. Finally add the seasoning.

For the seasoning:
1. Take a tadka pan, add little oil. Add mustard seeds.
2. Once the mustard starts to splutter, add the cumin seeds, hing and curry leaves.
3. Add this seasoning to the chutney.

Serve the chutney with Dosas or Idlis or Parathas.
