Notes
- Peanuts: I have used raw peanuts in this recipe. You can use them with or without the skin. You can also use store-bought salted or unsalted roasted peanuts, just adjust the additional salt accordingly.
- Curry leaves: You can use fresh or dried. I prefer fresh if they are available.
- Tamarind: If you don’t have tamarind paste, you can soak seedless tamarind in 1/4 cup water and microwave for 30 seconds. Remove the tamarind and use the water. Adjust the amount of water you are adding accordingly. You can also use equal quantity of lime juice.
- Vegan Variation: Use your favorite plant-based oil for the chutney.
