Indian Salsa ( Tomato Onion Chutney )

We recently bought tortilla chips, i had coincidently prepared tomato onion chutney so when he asked for dip i immediately mixed fresh chopped onions and tomatoes to the chutney and served him with tortilla chips. He enjoyed it very much and exclaimed it as a indian salsa !! This way we were both happy : )

Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup chopped onions
  • 1 cup chopped tomatoes
  • 3 tbsp chopped cilantra (coriander)
  • 1 tbsp chill flakes
  • 1 tbsp coconut powder
  • 1/4 tsp turmeric powder
  • 1/4 tsp cummin seeds
  • 1 tsp olive oil
For tempering
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1/4 tsp mustard seeds
  • pinch of hing
  • 1 spring curry leaves
For garnish
1/4 cup chopped onions and tomatoes and fresh cilantro

Cooking Procedure

Heat oil in a pan add cummin seeds when it splutter add onions and fry for 2 min

Add the rest of ingedients and stir for 3 min on medium flame

Take out and let it cool, once cool put in blender and make it a paste with little water

For tempering take the pan and heat the oil and mustard seeds and hing, once mustard seeds splutter add curry leaves and fry for 1/2 a min

Then add the blended paste in the pan and stir nicely and take it off the flame

Garnish or mix the fresh chopped onions,tomatoes and cilantro this will give a nice crunch.

Serve with tortilla chips
