This tomato pachadi is a simple and wholesome South Indian style chutney recipe. And this is again my mother's recipe which has cooked tomatoes, peanuts, sesame seeds, and other spices.
We usually eat this tomato pachadi for rice but it will be a good accompaniment for idly, dosa, umpa, and roti.
I made this in the grinder, you can make this in a mortar pestle as well. As we have added peanuts and sesame seeds, the shelf life is less. This is no onion no garlic tomato chutney recipe but you can add few garlic pods as well while cooking tomatoes.
