Ingredients
- 250 grams tamarind with seeds (I used Eastern Brand)
- 360g grams boiling water
- 109 grams sookhay aloo bukharay
- 9 grams ginger chopped
- 500 grams jaggery (gurr)
- 1½ teaspoons chat masala or to taste
- 1½ teaspoons roasted and crushed cumin or to taste
Instructions
- Begin by soaking the tamarind and dried plums (sookhay aloo bukharay) in boiling water for 2 hours.
- After soaking, transfer the mixture to a stove and add chopped ginger. Let it cook for an hour.
- Once cooked, strain the mixture to remove the seeds and any coarse fibers.
- Return the strained mixture to the stove and add jaggery, chaat masala, and roasted crushed cumin.
- Allow the mixture to simmer, stirring occasionally, until the jaggery completely dissolves and the chutney thickens to your desired consistency.
- Once the chutney reaches the desired consistency, remove it from the stove and let it cool.
- Transfer the cooled chutney into a clean, airtight jar. You can choose to freeze half of it for later use.
