Groundnut chutney (Kadlekai chutney)

My younger daughter enjoys having groundnut chutney and so I prepare it quite frequently.
And this chutney does not need coconut and so can be prepared anytime easily since groundnuts will be available at home anyway.

Recipe for it is below..

Ingredients
-----------
Groundnuts
Tamarind
Salt
Jaggery
Chillies
Onion - 1

Method
--------
Dry roast groundnuts and let it cool. Remove the skin of the groundnuts.
Fry red chillies and an onion and keep aside.

Grind together, groundnuts, red chillies, onion, salt, tamarind (small piece), jaggery (very little) with little water.
And the chuney is ready.

Tastes good with Rave Dosae.
