Prep Work:

Gather all the ingredients at one place. Wash the tomatoes, cut each into 4 parts.

Tips & Storage:

  • The colour of this chutney depends upon the colour of the tomatoes used and the amount of turmeric powder used.
  • For checking the softness of the tomatoes after roasting,  just try to cut a tomato with a spoon. If the spoon cuts in smoothly, then you can make the chutney. If not, continue to cover with lid them for more time.
  • You can add onion & garlic into the tempering and sauté.
  • If the initial tempering is burnt the chutney would also have a burnt smell. So while frying keep stirring continuously. 
  • Adjust the salt & spice as per your taste.
  • Adding water reduces the life of chutney. So better don’t. I did not add any water.
  • This, Simple South Indian tomato chutney / Andhra tomato pachadi, stays fresh for 2 days at room temperature.
  • And, tastes good up to 4 days, if refrigerated.

Result:

  • The taste of this, No Onion No Garlic Tomato chutney, is mild in spice and tangy.
  • It can be taken as an accompaniment with rice, roti, paratha, bread, naan, idli, dosa, uthappam etc etc.
  • You can have it as a dip for bajjis, pakodas, chips, fritters etc.
  • We had this spicy, tangy tomato chutney / dip as a condiment for my homemade crispy, crunchy Onion Roast Dosa.
