Ingredients

• 1 cup raw peanuts
• 1 inch piece ginger
• 2 units garlic cloves
• 2 units green chilies
• 0.5 cup coriander leaves
• 1 tablespoon tamarind paste
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup water
• 0.5 teaspoon mustard seeds
• 8 leaves curry leaves
• 1 teaspoon olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Heat a pan over medium flame and dry roast the raw peanuts for about 5-7 minutes until they are golden brown and aromatic. Stir continuously to avoid burning. Once done, let them cool completely.

Step 2

In a blender, combine the roasted peanuts, ginger, garlic, green chilies, coriander leaves, tamarind paste, salt, and water. Blend until you obtain a smooth, slightly thick chutney consistency. Add a bit more water if needed to adjust the thickness.

Step 3

For the tempering, heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add mustard seeds and let them splutter.

Step 4

Add the curry leaves to the skillet and sauté for a few seconds until aromatic.

Step 5

Pour the tempering over the blended peanut chutney and mix well.

Step 6

Serve as a side condiment or dip with your choice of dishes.
