TOMATO CHUTNEYS

ORIGINAL TAMATAR KI CHUTNEY

It is very simple, you just have to fry/saute 2-3 onions in oil, but don't let them turn golden brown. Add 3-4 chopped tomatoes along with salt and chilli powder (About a tablespoon of each) and cook it with a lid on low heat for 5-7 minutes. Do not add water to this as the juice in the tomatoes will be enough to cook the chilli powder & will not let the mixture burn either.
That's it... you're done!

CHUTNEY FOR A MEAL

One of the variations on the ‘Tamatar ki Chutney’ I make!

For those who love veggies and colour in their food! Besides salt and red chilli powder it has got tomato, onion, capsicum, green chilli, and a hint of chicken to tease your tentacles, sprinkled with a dash of chopped parsley!

1. Cut two medium sized onions and saute, do not let them turn brown. 
2. Into that add two kebabs, I used frozen chicken burgers. Break them into smaller pieces with your spatula. Do not add water, the onions can also get slightly golden while the burgers are being fried.
3.  When you feel the burger is just about done, at this point add about two tablespoons of tomato ketchup!

   Whenever I am cooking '10 minute' Chicken dishes like this one, adding tomato ketchup enhances the taste and I feel works well to reduce the odour of chicken too!
4.  When the burger pieces are fried, add three diced tomatoes. (The pieces should be neither too small nor too big) Then immediately after, throw in finely chopped green chillies.
5.  Then add very little water for the spices to dissolve. Salt and Chilli as per your taste. I would say 1 flat tablespoon of salt, 1 & 1/2 tablespoonful of chilli powder. And about 2 tablespoons of coriander powder. Mix it and let it cook for 3-5 minutes. 
6. Now add diced capsicum in the end because we don't want it to be overcooked.  
7. Then lower the heat and cover it all for about 5 minutes. 
8. For the final touch of perfection, sprinkle finely chopped parsley or coriander on top for a delicious aroma! And you are done! =)
