Tomato Chutney

                     I think this is one of the most  common chutney or thogayal made in every south Indian house but still i thought  will share the recipe since it is my favourite.It is quiet simple and easy to make and goes well with idli,dosa,adai upma etc.

Urad dal	1tbs
Red chillies	4
