Instructions
- Chop the dates and take the pits out.
- Mix the dates, tamarind concentrate, chaat masala, and water, and bring everything to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes until the dates soften and the mixture thickens. (see notes)
- Use an immersion blender to blend all of the ingredients into a smooth paste.
- Pour into a sterilized jar and cool. (see notes)
Notes
- Tamarind - Make sure to use concentrate and not a different type of tamarind, as this will affect the final taste and texture of the recipe.
- Medjool dates - Softer than regular dates, these work best in this recipe. If you decide to use regular dates, you must soak them for a few hours and then create a paste using a blender.
- Jaggery - I've used powdered jaggery or gur for this recipe. Palm sugar is the closest substitute, but brown sugar can also be used in a pinch.
- Chat masala - I use chat masala for this recipe as it contains all the spices typically added to tamarind chutney.
- Adjust water and spices - Once the chutney has been cooked and pureed, adjust the water, jaggery and spices to suit your personal taste.
- Cool completely - I usually stop cooking my chutney when it coats my spoon. It thickens considerably once it's completely cool, and I prefer to wait and make any adjustments.
