tomato peanut curry recipe

Tomato peanut curry recipe or maharashtrian tamatar shingdana chi bhaji – A quick & easy curry recipe of tomato & peanuts cooked in Indian spices.

Let me share a simplest Indian curry recipe that is quick and easy to make. This is a traditional Maharashtrian curry recipe known as “tamatar shingdana chi bhaji” in marathi language. A simple tomato peanut curry cooked in few indian spices. A nice balance of flavors without any hassle of spending too much time in kitchen.

This is the first recipe I am sharing here that I got from dear hubby. Yes you heard right, he can cook.. And very well actually. Being bachelor for so many years and staying away from home, he had to learn cooking. The guys staying together used to cook this curry often as it hardly took time. Also another reason why this recipe is hit among bachelors is that it required minimum ingredients. Mostly they fall short of vegetables and this tomato peanut curry only need tomatoes.

Peanut is added in this tomato peanut bhaji. It’s roasted and then coarsely ground. You can make roasted peanut powder once and store it in refrigerator. It remains fresh for quite a long time and hence can be used in this curry. Peanut gives a good nutty flavor in this tangy tomato peanut curry. I have also used peanuts with bhindi in this bhindi peanut fry recipe. It taste really great.


Similar to this tomato peanut sabji, you can also make sev tamatar sabji. It also gets cook in no time and taste great. Gujarati sev tameta nu shaak is really tasty sabji and goes well with gujarati bhakri.
