INSTRUCTIONS

Boil the tomato, garlic cloves and the cherry peppers on high heat till the tomato starts to soften. Turn out the heat and peel the outer skin of the tomato. Once done, cut the tomato into four or six pieces and discard the soft seeded core.

Now, grind the cherry pepper, garlic and boiled tomato together (with salt to taste). Depending on your preference, you may grind to a fine paste or just about so you get some chewy bits. Serve with a batch of momos once the chutney has cooled down. Note: Can be refrigerated and reused up to a week.
