As this recipe is completely different from the usual hotel style peanut chutney without coconut, I tried it immediately. It came out so well. We all loved it very much. 

If you have roasted peanuts in hand, you can make this chutney under 10 minutes with very less ingredients. The best part is adding roasted and crushed urad dal at the end which is unique and gives a mild crunchy taste. Friends, do try this Andhra hotel style peanut chutney without coconut (palli chutney / Verusenaga pachadi in Telugu) for idli, dosa. You will love it.  I served it with thatte idli  ( plate idli).

PEANUT CHUTNEY – STEP BY STEP PICTURES
  • Dry roast the peanuts in a hot kadai till it skin crackles OR microwave peanuts in high power for 2 minutes. No need to remove the skin. Cool down and set aside. Soak tamarind in 1/2 cup water and take the extract. Keep it aside.

  • In a kadai, heat 1 tbsp oil and roast the garlic cloves. Add roasted peanuts, mix well. Lower the flame. Add salt, red chilli powder. Mix quickly and add tamarind extract without burning chilli powder.

  • After it cools down, grind everything to a smooth paste. Do not add more water while grinding, it may splash. So first grind the peanuts with required water to a smooth paste. Then add more water and grind to a watery chutney.

  • Transfer to a serving bowl. Now heat oil in a kadai and temper mustard seeds, cumin seeds, urad dal, hing and curry leaves. Roast the dal till golden. Grind to a powder.

  • Add to chutney, mix well. Again temper mustard seeds, curry leaves and add to chutney. Tempering is not mentioned in original recipe. But I did it. Please check the main pictures for this step.

Note

  • Adjust the quantity of red chilli powder based on your taste.
  • For variations, you can add 1 tbsp coconut while grinding.
