Place the raw peanuts in a dry skillet over medium heat. Roast them for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until they have a golden brown color and are aromatic. Remove from heat and allow them to cool slightly.
In the same skillet, add coconut oil and heat it over medium flame. Add the chopped ginger, red chili, and curry leaves. Sauté for about 2 minutes until the ginger is fragrant and soft. Remove from heat.
In a blender or food processor, combine the roasted peanuts, sautéed ginger and chili mixture, tamarind paste, and salt.
Add water gradually while pulsing the mixture until you achieve a smooth consistency. You might need to scrape down the sides occasionally.
Once blended, transfer the chutney to a bowl and stir in the fresh chopped cilantro.
Taste the chutney and adjust with more salt if necessary. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
