Chilli peanut chutney/dip

   We are very fond of spicy food .This afternoon my taste buds wanted something tangy to add to my Indian meal of rice,lentils and vegetables.So looked in and found the green chillis of 2 types,one long not so spicy and the other nice and sharp.So got some things together and came with this lovely stuff to eat with my meals as well as a spread and with chips too.This is lovely spicy,tangy and has a lot of texture with peanuts.
