Tomato Mint Chutney/Thakkali Pudina Chutney




As my family likes the mint flavor,I try to make different varieties of chutney out of mint.One such try was this mint chutney and it pairs very well with idly and dosa.Also its a great spread for bread to make sandwiches.

This is a simple,easy to make chutney and need only 20 minutes for the entire process.Addition of urad dhal and channa dhal gives a nice creamy texture to the chutney.
