momos chutney recipe with step by step photos – spicy chutney for veg momos made with tomatoes, garlic and red chilies.

when i had posted veg momos recipe, i had got many requests to add momo chutney recipe too. its been a long time since i added the veg momo recipe. so some time back when i made wheat veg momos then i also made this chutney to go with it.

the momos chutney recipe is inspired from a nepali cookbook i have. i have made many changes to the recipe. apart from skipping some ingredients, i have also added a few. there is one ingredient in the recipe that makes quite a difference to the taste and gives a certain kind of pungency to the chutney and that is sichuan pepper. if you do not have sichuan pepper, then you just skip it. yes there will be some loss in the flavor profile, but still the chutney will taste good. if you live in goa or maharashtra, then instead of sichuan pepper, you can use tirphal or teppal.

the heat and pungency in this tomato chutney, can be adjusted as per your taste preferences. e.g. you can add less or more red chilies and black pepper or by using red chilies which have a high heat quotient. i have here used medium hot red chilies. the color of the chutney will also vary with the type of red chilies used. you can also use less hot red chilies like kashmiri red chilies or byadagi red chilies.
