Ingredients : Red onion-2, tomato-1(big), curry leaves.
Chop the onion and tomato as big chunky piece.
Method: heat a pan, add little oil, throw the onion, curry leaves(4) and tomato. Stir well, when it softens ( or until the raw smell goes away) add salt, a pinch of turmeric powder and 1 table spoon chilli powder. (If you like it spicy add more chilli powder. I used a combination of chilli and kashmiri chilli powder). Turn off the gas when the raw smell goes & allow it to cool. Then transfer to mixer grinder and make it a fine paste. Take a small saucepan pour coconut oil. When hot put mustard seed and 3-4 curry leaves. Switch off the flame and pour it in to the chutney mix and mix well.
