I have never been liking peanuts until I started having this chutney. My hubby loves peanuts on the other hand. When ever we are on flight or any trips his major snack would be roasted peanuts. I somehow never developed that liking for peanuts. When I saw so many people discussing on this chutney, I felt I should give it a try some time. And I absolutely loved this chutney. Of all the chutney’s I prepare peanuts chutney has now become my favorite 🙂 A very simple chutney and goes well with any South Indian breakfast. I have adapted this recipe from vahchef.

Ingredients:

Roasted Unsalted Peanuts : 1/2 cup

Red chili Powder : 1 1/2 teaspoon

Tamarind paste : 1 teaspoon

Water : as per need

Salt : as per need

Mustard Seeds : 1/2 teaspoon

Urad dal : 1/2 teaspoon

Curry Leaves : Few

Asafoetida : 1/2 teaspoon

Cumin Seeds : 1/2 teaspoon

Oil : 1 teaspoon

Method:

In a pan, heat half a teaspoon of oil, when hot add the roasted peanuts. Saute well for 3 to 4 mins.
Soak tamarind in water and make juice.
When it turn slight golden brown, stop heat and add red chili powder, tamarind juice.
Allow it to cool.
Next in a blender/mixer, add the above along with salt , water and grind it to chutney consistency.
In a small pan, heat remaining oil. When hot add mustard seeds, urad dal, cumin seeds, asafoetida. Let it splutter.
Finally add curry leaves and stop, add this is to the ground chutney.
You can serve this with Idli/Dosa, Upma, pongal.
