Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Raw peanuts
- 2 whole Green chili peppers
- 1 inch piece Ginger
- 2 whole Garlic cloves
- 10 leaves Curry leaves
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Coconut oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Mustard seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt

Instructions
Begin by dry roasting the raw peanuts in a skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring continuously, until they are golden brown. Allow them to cool slightly.
In a blender, combine the roasted peanuts, green chili peppers, ginger, garlic cloves, lemon juice, and salt. Blend until you achieve a coarse paste. Add water gradually to reach your desired chutney consistency.
In a small saucepan, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Add the mustard seeds and cumin seeds,—cook until they start popping—approximately 1 minute.
Add the curry leaves to the saucepan and let them sauté for a few seconds until fragrant.
Remove the saucepan from heat and pour this tempering mixture over the peanut paste in the blender.
Blend one more time to incorporate the tempering into the chutney.
Transfer the chutney to a serving bowl and adjust seasoning with more salt or lemon juice if needed.
Serve your low carb peanut chutney with your favorite low carb dishes or enjoy it as a dip with vegetable sticks.
