A sweet and a creamy Chutney with Thai sweet Tamarind that actually spruces up almost all the Chaats in our Country. It is a must have one that adds an extra zing to different Chaats and snacks. The best part is that it can be stored in the refrigerator and used for a long time nearly upto 2 months or more. But if it's Summer, it's better to freeze it. Or keep the major portion of it in the freezer and use whenever required accordingly. I usually make both the versions, first one with Jaggery and the second one with Sugar. The process remains the same for both.
In this particular one, I have used organic Palm Jaggery powder. It's a perfect accompaniment to various Chaats, Dahi Bhallas, Pakoras etc. It's also an excellent Dip for many a delightful snacks. The uses are many and the list is endless. You just go on and on with this amazing Chutney.
A little spicy and sweet, it's just right for many an occasions.

Enjoy Cooking with Zeen!

Steps

10-12 minutes

1

Soak sweet tamarind in water. Grind to a smooth paste after an hour. Remove the seeds without fail. Also add the rest of the ingredients except the jaggery. Simmer on a medium high heat. After the mix softens in about 10 minutes, add jaggery and mix well. Let it cool down a bit. Or make a smooth paste prior to cooking by adding jaggery too. The choice is yours.
2

Store in airtight containers. Use it according to taste and preference. Make it thin by adding little water whenever you need a thinner consistency chutney. This is however semi solid. So you can use it according to your choice.
3

It stays good for upto 4-5 months in the freezer. If you make it in larger quantities, keep a major part of it in the freezer in such cases. Simply thaw before using. And always use glass bottles or canisters for storing it. Enjoy!

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
