Want to make your own chutney to accompany a fine Indian food dish? Just say the word.
Ingredients
1⁄2 Pound tamarind 1⁄2 Pound jaggery 5 Cup water 1 Teaspoon garam masala
Instructions
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
