Tomato Chutney is my utmost favorite of all chutneys! Every family has its own version of making and I enjoy making my mom’s style which is simple to make, includes onion fresh ginger garlic and most of all easy peasy with no grinding involved. Many many lunch box memories pop up, as this used to be packed at least twice a week with either idli or chapati!

Notes

Stores well for 2 to 3 days at room temperature. Refrigeration keeps its good for up to a week.
Good for long travel, picnics and lunch box.
Choose ripe and juicy tomatoes on the vine for better taste.
Use fresh ginger and garlic for a nice texture and flavor.
You may replace all those spice powder with Kuzhambu Milagi Thool / All purpose curry powder to keep it much more simple.

      Swathi, this will stay good for 3 to 4 days without refrigeration provided its fried little longer and by using a clean dry spoon every time. When frying the onion, try to brown them by sauteing it for little longer and also at the final stage let the tomato cook fully without any big juicy pieces. Have a great trip. Thanks.
