Onion Capsicum Chutney

This is a simple chutney which goes well with Dosa. It is one of the outcome of my kitchen experiments. I had prepared this today with mixed flour Dosa. I was satisfied with the end result and hence decided to share the recipe. It has a nice spicy and tangy taste with the flavor of cumin and coriander powder..

Ingredients:

Onion - 1cup
Tomato - 1/4 cup
Capsicum - 1/2 cup
Mustard seeds - 1 tsp
Curry leaves- Few
Asafoetida - A pinch
Green chilli - 2(Chopped finely)
Salt to taste
Coriander powder - 1 tsp
Cumin powder - 1 tsp
Amchur powder - 1/2 tsp (Optional)
Cooking oil - 1 tsp

Procedure:

Heat oil in a pan and add mustard seeds. When mustard splutters add asafoetida, curry leaves and green chilly. Fry them well in the oil. Add the onions and saute till they turn golden brown. Add tomatoes and saute till they become mushy. Add the capsicum and saute for few minutes. Now add coriander powder, cumin powder, salt and amchur powder ( Adding amchur powder is optional. I have added little amchur powder because the tomatoes which i used weren't tangy). Grind the mixture coarsely for just few seconds.
Onion-Capsicum chutney is now ready to serve with Dosa. :)

Note :

1. Adding amchur powder is optional. I have added little amchur powder because the tomatoes which i used weren't tangy.
2. Instead of tomatoes and amchur powder, you can also use soaked tamarind.
