Red Tomato Chutney Recipe

Red Tomato Chutney is a side dish prepared regularly in our home.

Normally I prepare the Red Tomato chutney in summer season. The red tomatoes are completely ripe, not a lot sour and firm to hold.  They are available throughout the year though but the ones in the seasons I mentioned are the best lot to use in the recipe.

With its smooth texture and presence of multiple flavors viz. tangy , spicy and sweetness the chutney is quite unique in taste.

The Red Tomato Chutney can be served along with Jowar Bhakri and ghee. It can be savored with Rice and Dal as a side dish. It also serves as a good dip for Nachos topped with Cheese, with french fries or with plain salted potato chips.

Personally I also love to put this in a sandwich or a roti along with few other steamed veggies and eat it as a snack. The Green tomato chutney along with Aloo Paratha is a good lunch to carry for single day treks.

Top the chutney with a tempering of mustard seeds, chana dal, urad dal and curry leaves. In case you want to explore further, try to roast the Red tomato and Red Pepper directly on the flame instead of roasting it in the iron pot. I have tried it just once and used the most spicy chilly I had . It was an amazing salsa and the extra smokiness was worth the effort of handling the hot roasted Red Pepper and Tomato.
