Ingredients

1⁄2Poundtamarind
1⁄2Poundjaggery
5Cupwater
1Teaspoongaram masala

Instructions

  1. Mash the tamarinds after peeling unless you prefer a little rougher texture. Then add the tamarind pulp to the water in a large sauce pan.
  2. Heat slowly and allow to cook on medium for about 10 minutes. Then strain most of the thinnest liquid out and pour into a bowl.
  3. Add the jaggery and garam masala, then heat some more until the brown sugar is completely dissolved. During the process the chutney should thicken considerably.

Notes

Jaggery is a thick brown sugar made from the Palm.
Garam masala is a mixture of spices, including cumin, chili peppers, garlic, ginger and a few others. It is best to buy it, since grinding the spices just so and getting the proportions exactly right can be tricky.
