Green Tomato Chutney

I learned this green tomato chutney from my mom, and it is a North Karnataka version.

How to Make Green Tomato Chutney

Dry roast the peanuts till golden brown, keep aside. You can also use store-bought roasted peanuts.

dry roast the peanuts till brown

Add one teaspoon of oil to the same pan, add the green chilies and let them roast for 30 seconds or until you see blisters on their skin (you can also slit the chilies, so they don't pop)

Then add curry leaves and coriander leaves and fry for a minute until the leaves wilt. Keep aside.

Add another teaspoon of oil to the same pan, add sliced raw green tomato and cook until the tomatoes are charred and nicely cooked.

Serving suggestions

Tips & Variations

  • You can also add some roasted sesame seeds to this chutney.
  • Increase or decrease the green chilies according to your spice level.
  • Do not skip adding peanuts they give body to the chutney as well as enhance the taste. Don't add more you will end up with peanut chutney.
  • I have not added tamarind in this recipe since the green tomatoes I used were tart. If you want, you can add a small piece of tamarind.
  • If you don't like garlic, you can skip and add ¼ teaspoon of hing (asafoetida) instead.
  • You can also add the tempering to the chutney but it's totally optional.
