To begin making the Peanut Chutney Recipe, first place a pan on the heat. Melt the ghee in it, reduce the heat to low and add peanuts. Roast them for two to three minutes on a low flame till the peanuts are slightly brown.
Next, add urad dal and chana dal to it and roast again till the dals start turning light brown and smell toasted and nutty.
Once done add curry leaves and the green chilli. Stir this for a minute and turn off the heat. Allow the roasted ingredients to cool down for 5 minutes.
Once cooled, place all the roasted ingredients to a mixer grinder and grind it together with ginger, salt and a little water to a smooth paste. Transfer the peanut chutney into a bowl and keep aside.
Now to temper the chutney, place a tadka pan on the heat. Warm some ghee in it.
Add in the mustard seeds and allow the seeds to crackle. After the mustard seeds have crackled add the urad dal, curry leaves and the red chilis and allow them to splutter as well. Turn off the heat and pour the tempering over the peanut chutney, mix well and serve
