Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Pit the dates and the soak them with the tamarind and jaggery in about 2cups of water for 2 hours

    When cool strain till just the husks of tamarind and dates remain,water can be added to ease the repeat process.

  3. 3

    Then boil this mixture till it reaches boiling point then simmer for 5-7minutes.

  4. 4

    Add water if mixture dries up and starts burning.

  5. 5

    Strain mixture when it cools till the husk of tamarind remain,you you will need to do repeats by adding water to achieve that.

  6. 6

    If chutney is too runny you might need to boil again to get rid of excessive water and any way it I'd a good idea if you want to freeze it and store for long (1 month)

  7. 7

    Cool add the rest of the ingredients,mix well and serve it as an iron loaded,fat free dip for veggies,munchies or combine with yogurt and boiled potatoes for a side dish.
