Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams roasted peanuts
- 2 units green chilies
- 8 leaves curry leaves
- 1 tablespoon tamarind pulp
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 100 milliliters water
- 0.5 teaspoon mustard seeds
- 0.25 teaspoon asafoetida
- 1 unit dry red chili
- 1 teaspoon oil
Instructions
Begin by gathering all your ingredients and ensure that the peanuts are already roasted. If not, roast them lightly in a pan without oil until golden.
In a blender, add the roasted peanuts, green chilies, 5 curry leaves, tamarind pulp, cumin seeds, salt, and water.
Blend until you achieve a smooth, creamy consistency. The chutney should have a thick pouring consistency but you can adjust the water level if needed.
Transfer the groundnut chutney to a serving bowl and set aside.
In a small pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the mustard seeds and let them splutter.
Once the mustard seeds begin to pop, add the asafoetida, dry red chili, and remaining curry leaves.
Sauté for about 30 seconds to a minute, ensuring the curry leaves are crisp yet not burned.
Pour this tempering over the prepared chutney.
Mix gently and serve with dosa, idli, or any of your favorite snacks. Enjoy your low-fat groundnut chutney!
