Tomato Kothamalli Chutney

#TomatoKothamalliChutney  #TomatoCorianderLeafChutney : I bought a very big bundle of coriander leaves from the market. I cleaned and separated the thick bottom stem portion from the coriander plant. I decided to make chutney using these stems as they can not be used for garnishing and more over I do not want to throw them away as waste. Here comes the recipe.

Ingredients :

2 medium size                            Tomato [ country variety ]

12                                               Small Onions

3 cloves                                      Garlic

1/2 cup                                       Coriander leaves chopped

1 Tsp                                          Mustard seeds

1 1/2 Tsp                                    Black gram dal

3                                                 Red chilly

a small piece                               Asafoetida

3/4 Tsp                                       Salt

1 Tsp                                         Oil

 

Method :

Keep a kadai on stove with oil and heat over a medium flame.

Add asafoetida, red chilly and urad dal once it becomes hot..

Keep stirring until urad dal turns golden color.

Switch off the stove and transfer onto a plate.

Take onion and garlic in a microwave safe bowl.

Add 2 drops of oil and toss to coat the surface of onions and garlic with oil.

Microwave HIGH for 1 1/2 minnutes and take out.

Add tomato pieces into the same bowl and add 2 drops of oil over the tomato pieces.

Microwave for 45 seconds.

Take out and allow it to cool down to room temperature.

Take fried ingredients and salt in a mixie jar.

Grind coarsely.

Now add microwaved ingredients and grind to a paste.

Finally add coriander and grind well.

Adjust salt and transfer into a serving bowl.
An excellent side dish for Idli, Dosai and Adai [ Pancake ]

Note :
If the tomato is not a country variety add a small marble size tamarind to get desired taste.
Or add 1 or 2 Tsp of lemon juice.
