TOMATO CHUTNEY

I have posted a recipe of tomato onion  chutney but this chutney is different from the one already posted.  This chutney can be served as a side dish for chapati, phulka etc.  

One of my colleague had brought this for lunch as we all sit together and share our dishes in the afternoon.  She said tomato chutney gya (means take tomato chutney) I wondered it was not looking like the chutney we make but was like a side dish. When asked for recipe she explained to me but was a simple recipe and easy one to make at home with tomato and onion and some crunchy peanuts and a lovely dish too.

Let us look at the recipe now:
