Aazol's Peanut Chutney is made using a traditional Solapuri recipe and the highest quality peanuts packed with protein. While usually enjoyed in a thali with daily meals, its balanced flavours, spicy kick and crunchy texture make this unique chutney an excellent chakna option too!
Provenance
Groundnut or peanut is interestingly not of Indian origin, and was most likely introduced by the Jesuit missionaries who followed Vasco de Gama, goes one theory. Another traces its path into India from China or the Pacific Islands where it could’ve been introduced from Central or South America. Today, Maharashtra is one of five major producers of the oil seed, with people of Desh (western Maharashtra) using it in foods and pressed into oil.
