Dips for everyday use
Tomato-walnut Spread/Dip
About:
The basic ingredients for spreads and dips are garlic, chillies and spices. The texture can vary from thick and paste-like to soft and saucy. Making them at home is less expensive, and it allows me to control the flavour/heat level to taste. I love toasting the whole spices and grinding them for freshest flavour

This recipe is from my mom which is similar to baingan bharta. This recipe so rustic and beautiful. It is a hot favorite at home and for anyone I have made it for. It is also pretty simple, not requiring special spices. The other ingredients added to the dish are potatoes, green chillies and onions which are packed a mighty nutritional punch in one single dish.
