Notes
Make sure you use ripe red tomatoes which are a little sour for best taste.
Use gingelly oil for maximum flavour. But any flavourless oil can be used as per your preference.
Urad dal can be substituted with chana dal, flax seeds or sesame seeds. Check my variation in tomato chutney below.
Garlic can be added for flavour.
