Peanut chutney is favorite at home and is a good accompaniment for many South Indian breakfast items.

Peanut chutney can be made in many different ways. I have the basic peanut chutney with green chilly in the blog. The recipe I am sharing today has onion and tomato in them. Spicy, tangy and loaded with peanuts makes for a great side dish.

Tips to make a tasty peanut chutney-

Use good quality peanuts, smell them to see if they are fresh.

After roasting the peanuts remove the skin.

Add few coriander leaves for a burst of freshness.

Use either tamarind or lemon juice for tanginess.

Green chilly is my preferred chilly to use in the peanut chutney.

Peanuts are mild, the flavors of this chutney tastes good when green chilly, ginger and lemon juice are used in a good amount.

Peanut chutney can be served with
