Tomato – Onion Chutney (Oil Free)


This is very simple chutney that can be prepared instantly and easily. It goes well with dosas, rotis, rice and also as stuffing in curries (especially with Eggplant).

Ingredients:

  • 1 big Onion, diced
  • 1 big Tomato, diced
  • 1/2 tsp Lemon Juice or Tamarind Pulp (I used Lemon Juice)
  • 1/2 tsp Cumin Seeds
  • 2 tsp red Chili Powder (or more/less)
  • Salt

Preparation:

Add onion + tomato + cumin seeds to a pan and sauté well without adding any oil. Keep aside to cool.

When it becomes cold, grind it into a smooth paste by adding chili powder + lemon juice + salt. No need to add any excess water as tomato already contains water.

That’s all!! Enjoy this yummy and healthy chutney as desired.
