This easy tomato chutney is prepared quickly, in this recipe garlic or onion is not used hence it comes under the category of Jain or Saatvik recipe. Tomato chutney can be served as an accompaniment with aloo paratha or any other meal course.

Chop and puree tomatoes.
Heat oil in a pan.
Add cumin seeds, as they crackle, add curry leaves, red chilli powder and tomato puree immediately.
Add salt and sugar, mix well cook it on high flame for 5-6 minutes.
Serve this chutney with any meal course.

Notes:

Adding sugar enhances the color of chutney, and gives it a sweet and sour tangy taste.
If the consistency is not thick enough according to you, cook it for another 1 to 2 minutes.

You can also sprinkle some garam masala powder over it.
