Saravana bhavan tomato chutney recipe

Saravana Bhavan tomato chutney recipe in hotel style, with step by step pictures. Red colored chutney with lots of coriander leaves and garlic flavor.

I love the red chutney that they serve in Saravana bhavan here in Singapore. It has an unique flavor that is different from the red chutney I make or the onion tomato chutney I usually make.

So wanted to try this chutney for long time. After few tries, came up with this hotel saravana bhavan tomato chutney. The garlic and lots of chopped coriander gives a different flavor for the chutney.

Top tip

• To make this chutney taste perfect, make sure to balance the tomato's tart with good spice.
• You can add a pinch of sugar too if you like it.
• For perfect color, use fine ground Kashmiri red chilli powder.
• You can also use kashmiri dry red chillies if you have. Skip the red chilli powder and use whole chilli along grinding.

I guess this can also be good for chapati.
