Chutney or Indian condiment recipes are purpose-based recipes which are typically served as taste enhancers. The purpose and the ingredients of this chutney mainly depend upon the demographic region it hails from like North or South India. However, there are certain chutney recipes which are prepared across India for various reasons and tomato chutney is one of the popular recipes.
I have posted quite a few chutney recipes on my blog, but still, I get a lot of requests to post a unique or exciting chutney recipe. As matter of fact, I had posted this chutney long back, but I am revisiting this chutney with a new way and more importantly longer shelf life. Basically, in my previous post on tomato chutney, I had used coconut which helps in consistency but reduces shelf life. Moreover, this time I have prepared and cooked the tomato puree in oil. This would remove all the raw flavour and thus help in improving the shelf life. Once it is cooked, it can be easily stored in an air-tight container similar to a tomato pickle or any other pickle. You may serve a scoop of this chutney with your favourite breakfast recipes or any dal rice or rasam rice recipe.
