Peanut Chutney

Having Idli or Dosa batter ready to go is such a boon! 5.30pm is a busy time in our kitchen. Dinner prep begins in full swing. After a busy work day, some days it is convenient to have Idly or Dosa for dinner with a vegetable on the side. Little M loves these foods and he likes dipping the pieces in a chutney or podi.

One chutney that takes very little time to throw together is this one, if you have roasted peanuts on hand. It is a "raw" chutney. For something so simple, it tastes quite delicious. I think it would make a good salad dressing as well.

Ingredients

1/4 C crushed roasted peanuts

1 tsp minced ginger

Handful of chopped cilantro

1 tsp date syrup

3 Tbsp lemon juice

Salt to taste

Method

Blend all ingredients in food processor or mixer. Taste and adjust balance of sour, sweet, and saltiness.
