Simple and Nice Tomato Chutney Recipe

I love chutney. It really whet my appetite and made me eat more rice! There are some tomatoes that have been sitting in my fridge far too long and I used them to make this vegetarian chutney. I just used all the basic ingredients that I have in stock and the end result turned out quite good. Here is my simple tomato chutney recipe.

Ingredients
Tomato, 3 pcs
Garlic, 3 cloves, cut into slices
Shallots, 3 pcs, cut into slices
Curry powder, 3 table spoons, add water to make a paste
Mixed Halba, 1 teaspoon
Curry leaves, from 3 stalks
Salt to taste
Vegetable oil, 2 tablespoons

Heat up wok and add in the vegetable oil. Put in the shallots and garlic. Saute them for a short while and add in the curry paste, curry leaves and mix halba. Lower down the heat and stir the mixture regularly to avoid burning it. Add tomatoes and stir until they break into small pieces. Add a little water and let it boil until all the tomatoes turned soft. Lastly, add in the salt. Serve with steamed rice while still hot.
