Tomato Dip

This recipe is a cross between tomato raitha & tomato dip. Tomato raitha is nothing but cooked tomatoes mixed with yogurt and tomato dip is usually fresh tomatoes mixed with sour cream. 

My recipe for tomato dip calls for cooked tomatoes to be mixed with sour cream. It is easy to make, colorful, and tastes delicious. I prepared this today to go with pudhina roti and both made a great combo.


Ingredients

Finely chopped medium sized tomatoes - 3 nos
Yogurt - 1/2 cup
Sour cream - 1/2 cup
Chilli powder - 1-2 tsp
Salt to taste
Hing - 1-2 pinches
Oil - 1 tsp

Method
Heat oil in a pan, and toss in all the chopped tomatoes. Add chilli powder, salt, hing and cook until tomatoes become soft. Let it cool.


Add the cooled mixture to yogurt + sour cream base, and adjust salt level.


Serve it alongside chapathi / roti / parathas.

Tips:
  • You can also splutter mustard seeds and add it to the dip.
  • You can garnish it with cilantro.
