This is my go to chutney for idli or dosa, it is so easy to make and taste really yummy. I like to have it with idli, dosa or kuzhipaniyaram. I like to add little extra oil for this chutney and the oil which i prefer to use is gingelly oil because of its aroma and taste.

What is gingelly oil. Can we use normal oil.

It's Indian sesame oil. Unlike Chinese sesame oil, it is cold pressed, so the taste is nicer
Aarthi

Can you please mention the measuring cup, measuring spoon etc. Instead of just large tomatoes etc.
Large, medium etc ‘s are relatively. According to you it may be a 3” diameter is large. But some people it may be 4” . So can you please send me the measurements for tomatoes chutany?
PM
I like the tomatoes chutaney. Once it turned out excellent but now I cannot make same as 1st time.
Can you please have measurements in a cup and teaspoons tablespoons because large and small or medium could be in 2” diameter or any size…
