peanut chutney served in a small steel bowl

Peanut Chutney is a very popular chutney in my home state Andhra. Its a great side for Dosa, Idli, Upma Pessarattu and Pongal. Peanuts are rich in nutrients and have high protein content. Peanuts are a good source of niacin, which contribute to brain health and blood flow.

Its my all time favourite chutney. Given all the nutritional facts I tend to make this chutney more often than the coconut chutney. 

You can serve the Peanut Chutney with

Poha Dosa

Semiya Idli

Pongal

Gunta Ponganalu

Punukulu

      It looks great. I have made them with buttermilk and they were great when cooked with unsalted butter. Pl you must try this way and they will taste very good too.
