Peanut Ginger Chutney

Apparently Ginger Chutney is a popular Andhra recipe:

Here is a variation of ginger chutney that I found very delicious:

1. Chop and pan-fry with 1 tbsp of vegetable/canola oil:
Half medium sized onion, one small green chilli and skinned two-inch ginger.

2. Roast one cup (the plastic cup that comes with rice cookers) shelled skinned peanuts

3. Dump all the above into a mixer, add three tbsp of water and grind to a coarse paste (it should look and feel like hummus)

4. Add 3/4 tsp of salt to the paste and mix well.

That is our Peanut Ginger Chutney.

I found that this chutney goes very well with plain dosa. I have also tried this as a spread for multi-grain bun and the sandwich is absolutely delicious.
