Coriander, tomato & Onion chutney


chana dal 2 tbsp
hing 1/4 tsp
onion 2 medium
tomatoes 2 big
coriander leaves 1/2 cup
salt to taste
green chilies 3-4 or to taste
tamarind small marble ball size
oil 1 tsp
mustard seeds 1/2 tsp
udad dal 2 tsp

Method
1) In a kadai, add chana dal roast it, remove.
2) In a few drops of oil, fry onion chopped till transparent, those who love garlic may add few pearls of it & fry along with onion., then add tomatoes, saute a while, once they're a bit soft, add tamarind, remove, cool.
3) In the mixie, grind all with salt to taste.
4) heat rest of the oil, add mustard seeds, once to crackles, add udad dal, once it turns golden, sesaon the chutney. 

ps- this goes well with idli, dosai, adai, roti, upma. 
It is healthier, than the usual coconut chutney, as it doesn't have cholesterol.
