Ingredients
  

  • 200 g Tamarind Pulp
  • 200 g Brown Sugar or jaggery
  • 500 ml Water
  • 1 tsp Cumin Seeds
  • 1 tsp Black Salt
  • 1 tsp Chilli Powder
  • 1 tsp Ground Ginger
  • 1 tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • 1 tsp Ground Cloves

Instructions

  • Combine tamarind pulp and water in a saucepan, bringing it to a boil, and then letting it simmer for 5-7 minutes until the tamarind softens.
  • Strain the tamarind mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a separate bowl, using a spoon to extract as much pulp as possible.
  • Return the strained tamarind pulp to the saucepan, adding jaggery (or brown sugar), and stir until the sweetener completely dissolves.
  • Add the cumin seeds, black salt, red chili powder, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, and ground cloves into the tamarind mixture, ensuring thorough mixing.
  • Continue simmering the mixture over low heat for approximately 15-20 minutes, occasionally stirring until the chutney thickens to a syrupy consistency.
  • Allow the tamarind chutney to cool down to room temperature, during which it will further thicken.
