Imli-Khajoor Chutney

A sweet n spicy Tamarind-Dates Chutney...my simple version



Tamarind(Imli) - 500gm
Dates(de-seeded)- 10
Tumeric - 1 tsp
Red chilli powder - 1 tsp (adjust to ur spice level)
Salt
Jaggery - 1/2 cup (roughly grated/broken)
Sugar - 2 tbsp
Water -as needed

Method: -

Soak tamarind in 2 cups- lukewarm water for 1-2 hrs.Squeeze out the pulp and discard the skin n seeds of tamarind.
Chop dates roughly.
Take a deep pan,add tamarind pulp  and let it boil .Once it starts boiling add jaggery n  date pieces.
Boil this mix till it becomes thick in consistency..at this stage add all other ingredients  and stir well.

If the chutney is too thick ..add little water .Turn off heat and let it cool on room temp.

Store in an airtight glass bottle in fridge.
Keep it out for half an hour before serving....Njoy!!!
