Today’s post is Tomato chutney recipe with step by step pictures and a short YouTube video. The most simplest and easiest chutney with minimal ingredients that even bachelors can give a try. This Thakkali chutney recipe is equally tangy, mildly spicy and a versatile one that goes well with idli, dosa, vada, sooji khichdi, chapati and even poori too. As we don’t use coconut, it has a longer shelf life if stored in refrigerator. I have already shared other versions like tomato mint chutney and kara chutney which is more or less similar to this.

Tips
1. Use ripe and red tomato for a tasty and bright coloured chutney.
2. Shallots can be replaced with 1 medium sized regular onion, but this thakkali chutney recipe tastes better with shallots.
3. Addition of garlic lends a nice flavour to the tomato chutney recipe.
4. Adjust red chilli as per spice level required.
5. Red chilli can be skipped and even 1/2 tbsp of chilli powder can be used.
6. Addition of sambar powder is optional, but it lends more taste to the chutney.
7. For a different taste, 2 tsp of channa dal can be sauteed and grinded with other ingredients.
8. Ensure you saute the onion and tomato till the raw smell completely leaves.
9. I suggest you temper the chutney in sesame oil, which adds an excellent taste to the chutney.
10. Shelf life of this chutney is 1 week under refrigeration.
