Raw Tomato Chutney (தக்காளிச் சட்டினி)

Ingredients:
Tomatoes (chopped)
Corainder Leaves (Kothamalli)
Green Chillies (As required)
Ginger (1 inch piece, peeled)
Coconut (grated)
Salt (prefer induppu)
Oil (prefer organic) - optional
Mustard Seeds (Kadugu) - optional

Preparation Steps:
1. Add chopped tomatoes, chopped Kothamalli, grated Ginger, grated Cocunut and salt and blend well in a mixer to smooth paste
2. If required, garnish with Mustard seeds (kadugu) spluttered in oil

Serve with some hot sathvik Tiffin! 

Tips Corner:
Here are a few tips to ensure a healthy and Sathvik vegan dish, when food becomes the medicine that heals the body.

Tomatoes, Kothamalli, Ginger & Cocunut in itself brings a lovely flavour and taste to the chutney. Green chillies and salt is more of a gratification for our taste buds, so use wisely and minimally if possible to help body enjoy the raw nature of the food

The garnishing with Mustard seeds (kadugu) is purely optional as raw food mixed with heated food reduces the true power of the raw food. So, if possible this step is best avoided as the chutney tastes great even without the tadka.
