ONION TOMATO CHUTNEY RECIPE , SIDE DISH FOR IDLI DOSA

Onion tomato chutney recipe -with video  
Onion tomato chutney is the usual one which i make for idli or dosa.  This version i tasted long back in a birthday party and tried at home assuming the ingredients, but to my surprise the onion tomato chutney (without coconut) came out well and it tasted almost the same .Two days back i made this for dosa and my little one who doesn’t eat chutneys, enjoyed this a lot.Check out my full collection of chutney recipes.
