Chutney is the main dish in South Indian menu. Green tomato chutney is one of the chutney varieties which is prepared using raw/ unripe tomatoes. Also famously known as Pachi Tomato chutney in Andhra. Today's chutney is my second No Onion - No Garlic recipe. As I prepared this for idli's when I was fasting. It is tangy and spicy in taste. We can have it with steamed rice, idli, dosas, pesarattu. But I love to have it with hot steamed rice with dollop of ghee 😋. Generally we prepare riped/red tomato chutney by frying ingredients like mustard and Methi seeds, but for this green chutney we use groundnuts and sesame seeds and fresh scraped/grated coconut which is very healthy. There are many nutritional benifits of using green tomatoes, it rich in antioxidants and Vitamin C. So let's get this benifits and stay healthy 🤗.
We can also use onions and garlic as per your wish. Little amount of Peanuts are used otherwise the tangy taste will reduced and tastes like normal peanut chutney. Adding sesame seeds adds taste to the chutney and also healthy. We can also add a pinch of tamarind. Chutney taste yummy when it is spicy so adjust chilli quantity accordingly. Using Ghee for tempering will gives good taste.
