This South Indian chutney has got really simple ingredients. Lets start with Tomatoes - Use ripe red Vine Tomatoes. Tomatoes render gorgeous colour to this south indian chutney. Onions - I have used white onions for this tomato chutney. However, you might use red onions too which adds some excellent flavours. Garlic - Fresh garlic cloves adds deep flavours to the chutney. I would not recommend using garlic puree. Dried Red Chilly - We like our chutney mildly spiced. Hence I have added just 2 red chillies. You may as well add more to make it spicer. Curry Leaves - I love the rustic flavours from the curry leaves in chutney. Tamarind ( Optional ) - Tamarind Pulp adds that extra tang to the chutney. But you can feel free to leave it out too. Seasoning -  I like elevate the flavours in my chutneys with mustard seeds, curry leaves and red chillies. But, this chutney tastes wonderful without the tempering too.
