This is an excellent everyday recipe made with tomatoes and mint leaves. I like to make this chutney a little spicy. This is perfect for breakfast and I am sure that one will go for second serving of idli or dosa along with this chutney. This is a very rustic country style recipe that my maid makes and we all love it at home. I even use it as a spread for sandwiches. Do try it!
Here is the video of the recipe:
Here is how to do tomato pudina chutney.
Heat oil in a pan and add in the curry leaves and green chillies. Add in the garlic cloves and saute for a minute.
Add in the sliced onions and salt. Saute for a couple of minutes. Add in the chopped tomatoes.
When the tomatoes are well cooked and dry, add in the fresh shredded coconut. Add in the tamarind and a small piece of jaggery. If you dont have jaggery, add a pinch of sugar. The jaggery rounds the flavour of the chutney.
Saute for a couple of minutes. Add in the mint leaves.
Saute the mint leaves for a minute and remove from heat.
Once the mixture is cool, grind to a smooth paste in a mixie with quarter cup of water. Do not add a lot of water while grinding. The chutney needs to be thick.
Serve the chutney with idli, dosa and even goes well with ragi mudde.
