Tomato Chutney

Tomato Chutney is a great chutney my hubby introduced me to recently, and he made it in just under 10mins..

All you need is -
Tomatoes (Peeled) - 1/2 kg
Ginger (grated or finely chopped)
Green Chillies (Sliced or finely chopped)
Heeng (Asafoetida)
Cumin Seeds
Mustard Seeds
Bay leaves
Haldi (Turmeric Powder)
Red Chilly Powder
Salt & Sugar to taste
Cooking oil

Note - If you cant peel the tomatoes using a peeler, boil them in full for about 5-7mins. After that, the total peel comes out easy.

To make -
In a pan, heat 2 spoon full of cooking oil at mild heat. Now put a pinch of heeng and half spoon of cumin seeds. After 30secs add some mustard seeds and let it sputter for another 15secs. Add the bay-leaves and followed by ginger and green chillies within the next 10secs. Now add half spoonful haldi powder and red chilly powder to preference. After 30secs, add the tomatoes. Cook for 2mins, by then the tomatoes soften and add salt to taste. Stir and cover with lid and turn the heat to low flame. Cook for anoher 5-7mins. Finally add some sugar and cook for anther minute.
The chutney is ready.

Serve cold or hot, as per your preference.

Enjoy!!
