1. Prepare the sesame seeds. Then, heat the oil in a medium wok or saucepan over medium-high heat and add the mustard seeds they should splutter upon contact with the hot oil, so lower the heat and cover the pan until the spluttering subsides. Add the curry leaves and both the dals, and stir until the dals are golden, about 30 seconds. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until golden, about 3 minutes. Add the ginger, garlic, and green chili peppers, stir 1 minute, then mix in the turmeric, salt, and asafoetida.
2. Add the tomatoes and vinegar and cook until most of the juices evaporate and the chutney is semi-thick, 7 to 10 minutes. (It will continue to thicken as it cools.) Transfer to a serving dish, garnish with the sesame seeds, and serve hot or cold, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator, about 1 year.
