Date Chutney Recipe
Category: Chutneys
Rating: 3.72
Servings: 3


Ingredients

8 oz pitted medjool dates
1/4 teaspoon red chili powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cumin powder
3 cup water
1/2 teaspoon tamarind paste



Directions: How to Cook Date Chutney

This recipe calls for tamarind paste, a sweet-and-sour flavoring made from the beanlike tamarind fruit. If you can't find tamarind paste, add 1/2 cup honey and 1/2 cup vinegar to dates during cooking.

Place dates in a medium saucepan and cover with water. Cook until soft and tender, about 25 minutes. Or cook dates for 15 minutes in a pressure cooker. Set cooked dates aside to cool.

Puree dates in small batches in a food processor or blender, adding a little water as needed to make a smooth paste.

Melt tamarind and spices to pureed dates. Stir well. Add more water as needed to make a thick sauce.

I had been looking for this very recipe for a long time! When I recently found some bhel mix in a local store, I had to search more diligently, so I could enjoy that addictive snack. :-)

I made a double batch! The instructions are simple and clear.

Thank you so much.

You need think about it. Despite the emails, the overwhelming evidence showing global warming is happening hasn't changed.
"The e-mails do nothing to undermine the very strong scientific consensus . . . that tells us the Earth is warming, that warming is largely a result of human activity," Jane Lubchenco, who heads the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, told a House committee. She said that the e-mails don't cover data from NOAA and NASA, whose independent climate records show dramatic warming.
