Chutney dips in the Indian kitchen

Condiments and dips in each region of India serves the purpose of easy meals and are particularly useful during train and bus travel.For example,paratha and achar in North India.Idli chutney in south India,Dhokla and hari chutney in western region.

Chutney dips are easy to make.They are also a part of bhog or prasadam in eastern India and an important part in wedding dinners.

There is a variety of tomato dips in many regional cuisines.For example,Odia khatta in Odisha.Served with Kanika rice in the east.Tamata ni chutney served with methi thepla in Gujarat in the west.

Many varieties of tomato chutney in south India too.Some made with sun-dried tomatoes others with yogurt.

Sometimes even this chutney and plain rice is a great meal,especially,if you want something fast.You can also have tomato pachadi with paratha or roti.

Simple  home cooked meal is much more flavorful and tastier.It is always better to have home cooked meals.Much better than having fast food outside.

You can always prepare them and store it in a clean jar in refrigerator.

Note: Only use a clean dry spoon to serve the pickle and chutneys as moisture spoils them.Store it in refrigerator once made.It stays longer than a week when stored.
