tomato pudina chutney recipe | pudina tomato pachadi | tomato mint chutney with step by step photo and video recipe. chutney recipes are one of popular and sought after side dish recipes in india. in north india it is generally made and served as a side dish to snack or street food, but in south india it is served for morning breakfast. then there is a combination of these 2 and tomato pudina chutney recipe is one such easy and tasty chutney offerings.

well, to be honest, i am a big fan of just pudina chutney and tomato chutney prepared separately. i often make it for my snack side dish or for my morning breakfast respectively. having said that, this recipe the combination of both is unique and something to try. i am not a huge fan of this recipe anyway and i like to have the individual flavours. but there is huge fan following for it and my husband is one of them. he likes it as a side dish when served with dal rice or sambar rice combination. moreover, the best part of this recipe is shelf life. unlike other south indian chutney, i have not added coconut which improves the shelf life significantly. you may make it and preserve it in the fridge for 2-3 days easily.

anyway, before wrapping up i would like to add few more tips, suggestions and variations to tomato pudina chutney recipe. firstly, in this recipe, i have not added coconut with pudina and tomatoes. many south indian may prefer to have additional coconut for extra flavour, but i think it would reduce the sharpness and flavour. secondly, i always recommend using fresh and ripe tomatoes for this recipe. you may use roma tomatoes for this recipe but can also use other available tomatoes. lastly, the chutney tastes better when tempered with mustard and urad dal with a hint of hing and red chillies.
