Onion - Tomato Chutney - BM#4

Sometimes technology gives up completely. I had problem uploading my photos to the blog initially. So I uploaded the snaps in when the network was fast for all my posts. I did this, thinking that blogger would open any time and that I can write the post. But I was wrong, blogger would not open for me last night AT ALL. I completely hated it but was not in a position to do anything. So here I am early morning when the speed of network is good to finish my posts. My recipe for the day is a easy breezy Onion - Tomato Chutney. This can be done to have a different side dish for chapathi or dosa or idli. It can also be used as a sandwich filler or to make frankies. I mostly do this when guests come home. Its a easy one when added to the menu will make the spread look a little huge. Ingredients:

• Onion - 2 ( cut into small pieces)


• Tomato - 2 ( cut into small pieces)


• Red chillie powder - 2 tsps


• Coriander powder - 2 tsps


• Turmeric powder - 1/2 tsps


• Salt - to taste


• Tempering - Mustard seeds & Oil

Method:

• Cut the onion and tomato to small pieces. I use a vegetable cutter so mine is super fine and is done in a jiffy

• In a non stick pan add a little oil.


• When the oil is hot add the mustard seeds and allow them to sputter


• Once mustard seeds are done add the chopped onions and saute


• Wait till the onions are translucent and then add the tomato


• Saute for 5 mins.


• Then add the powders , Red chillie, Coriander, Turmeric and salt


• Keep sauting till it reaches a muchy consistency. Do not add water as the juice of tomato added will be enough

• In 15minutes the chutney will be ready


• Serve it with white fluffy dosas or chapathis


• This can be stored for 2 -3 days in the fridge


• Makes an excellent condiment for travel and picnics
