I made this chutney and served with my quinoa idli and it was fantastic. I loved the nuttyness you get from the peanuts in the chutney. Make this chutney spicy and pour some gingelly oil over it and enjoy.

Aarthi, thanks for the peanut chutney recipe/idea. We love all things "peanut" and this is certainly a recipe I had never considered. But what a great accompaniment to many recipes or tossed with some whole wheat pasta! Wow.

I haven't tried a lot of Andhra dishes, and I've never made peanut chutney. When I was making it today, everyone in the house said: "Wow, it smells like peanut butter in here!". And I said: "Because that's what we're having for dinner, hehe". And they said: "Nooo! Peanut butter is only for breakfast". They said the chutney didn't taste like any other chutney that we had before, but they still liked it a lot. Thanks for posting.
