Peanut chutney (ground nut chutney) is very famous in rayalaseema side for any breakfast item or to the main course meal. Kids & Elders all like , love this pachadi soo much. I feel this is an alternative to peanut butter of the west. The preparation is easy and very tasty also.
There are so many ways a peanut chutney is made, sharing the one which I make at home. Some folks prefer to deskin the peanuts before grinding. The colour of the pachadi can vary based on the ingredients like tamarind, green chilli, red chilli and roasting peanuts as well. This variant of chutney is made it with green chilli, red chillies are also added to the popu or thiragabatha and is grounded using the traditional stone grinder manually, it goes very well with Ragi sangati. This recipe is also called as palli pachadi in some parts of south India.
