Tomato chutney- Side dish for Idli, dosa and rice

Tomato pacchadi is one of my favorite chutney with which I can munch on with out any hesitation. This is little healthy too. I just got bore with coconut chutney for dosa and thought to try different, I just called my mother and said the same and asked for suggestion. She told me tomtato chutney recipe. Though I know it before but I never gave a try. This is the first time I made this chutney. Thought my hubby will not like that much, surprisingly he loved it a lot. Thank you amma for the yummy recipe. Now coming to the recipe.
