The fresher the coriander, the tastier the chutney.If the onions can be substituted with spring onions, even better. Thoda pudhina add kiya jaye to baat hi kuch aur haiJ
This green chutney is an all time favourite of ours….very little to go wrong with:).Its also a very healthy alternative to any achar.
Fresh Tomato chutney
Microwave 4-5 tomatoes till the skin becomes soft. Once cool, remove the skin. Mash them nicely –remove any big pieces that might hinder with the tongue. Finely chop about 2 onions with a lot of fresh coriander in the chopper.
Mix this with the mashed tomatoes, add a pinch of salt and you are done.
- Level of difficulty: Easy
- Serves 3
- Self Appraisal – 7/10
The tomato chutney came out nice but may not have been a great idea for the khichdi. Alternative use could be in a sandwich or modified to make salsa.
