Easy Tomato Chilli Chutney Recipe

This is like my favourite chutney. I make them quite often because they are so easy to make and taste so yum. When i make this, i try to get a double batch of it, so i can keep it in fridge and have it whenever i need. My little one like this chutney a lot, so i make this with less chilli powder and have it in fridge, she loves it with her dosa or idli, she licks my fingers when i feed her this..It is like finger licking good..

    Hi Aarthy,
    I tried this recipe today and it turned out splendid. My husband was reminded about the taste of our hometown restaurants. We live abroad and fortunately i got a chance to serve him his favorite thakkali chutney… Thank you so much.

    Hi Aarthy,
    I added just 2-3 pods of garlic for grinding and tried this chutney. It was really yummy and superb. I hope others can try this option also if they like to add garlic, which is good for health.

    This chutney was so so yummy…We live abroad and my hubby took me to an Indian restaurant yesterday and asked me to try their tomato chutney which is his most favourite.I did try and it was yummy. And then he asked me to make a chutney similar to it at home. I obviously couldn’t figure out their ingredients. Later I just found the picture of the chutney in this page to be similar to the one I had at that restaurant. So I just tried this chutney today and it came out really well. And the best part is that my hubby said he liked this chutney much more than the one he usually has in that restaurant. Very happy. Thank you 🙂
