Tomato Chutney

Tomato Chutney can be compared to salsa, but as cooked salsa. This dish is one that I like a lot. It makes tasty sandwiches as well. It is also full of goodness as the major ingredient is tomatoes.

Tomato Chutney serves as side dish, most times. It helps to balance flavors and goes down well with most curries. It is often served as an accompaniment to Kitchri. The Chutney has a slight tanginess that complements the bland kitchri.

This recipe is a basic one. Some tomato chutneys include bell peppers. It is also a kind of base for baked beans, soy burgers and soy hot-dogs. Here is the recipe
