Ever had this chutney with a nice just-off -the-tawa parantha? Its simply heaven!


Aug 11, 2008: Edited to add - The Recipe:

On special demand here is the recipe :) Its fairly easy and takes about 20-25 mins.

Ingredients
  1. 1 cup diced tomato
  2. 1/2-3/4 cup diced onions (optional)
  3. 2-3 cloves garlic (optional)
  4. 2-3 green chillies
  5. Mustard seeds
  6. 2-3 tbsp sugar
  7. 1 tbsp garam masala
Steps:
  1. Put 1 tbsp oil and when hot add mustard seeds till they splutter.
  2. Add garlic and saute slightly. (this step is not required you are not using garlic)
  3. Add onions and saute till translucent. (this step is not required you are not using garlic)
  4. Add tomatoes and green chilies.
  5. Add salt and half cup water.
  6. Cover and let it simmer
  7. When it gets a little pasty, add sugar and garam masala.
  8. Let it simmer till the water is almost gone. (If you feel the tomato is not properly done and you need to add more water, do that!)
You can eat it warm or eat it cold! It tastes good anyways :)
