When you decide on dosas or idlies for breakfast, having a quick chutney handy makes the task easy. We are always on the lookout for good recipes. Though we make Tomato Chutney in different ways, this is yet another way of making a quick chutney. Not only is this quick, it tastes great for a easy breezy dips.

You can make this less spicy if you want to give this to kids. We made this as a quick one when Amma had tried making an idli with Moong Dal and Idli Rava. I suggested this to a bachelor friend, who tried this and said wow.

Quick Tomato Chutney – 2

Tomato – 1 medium
Onion – 1 medium
Red Chilis – 2 -3
Curry leaves – 2 -3 twigs
Tamarind a small marble size
Garlic – 2 -3 cloves
Oil – 1 tsp

For Seasoning

Mustard Seeds – 1/4 tsp
Urad Dal – 1/3 tsp
Curry leaves 2 -3 leaves

Method to prepare:

Chop all ingredients.

Heat a pan with few drops of oil, saute the chopped ingredients for couple of minutes. You need not actually saute them very brown. About 3 mins is just enough.

Allow to cool, then grind to a smooth paste. Heat the pan again with 1 tsp of oil. Splutter mustard seeds, urad dal and curry leaves. Pour this over the ground tomato chutney.
