Peanut Tomato Chutney

I first tasted this in Bangalore at a friends place. This chutney goes well with bread or dosas!

1 cup roasted peanuts
3 medium tomatoes, chopped
1 medium/big onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 dried red chili (or 1 hot Thai chili, sliced)
1 tbsp coriander powder
1 tsp cumin powder
Salt
Juice of one lemon
H2o
Toasted sesame oil, 1 tbsp

In a hot pan, add the toasted sesame oil and heat
Add the onions and stir until lightly brown
Add the split chili, peanuts and the garlic, stir for a couple minutes
Add the spices, salt and stir for about 2 minutes
Add the tomatoes, stir and cook until soft

Transfer to a blender and blend until smooth; to mimic the consistency of peanut butter add about a half cup of water. Mix in the juice of one lemon.
