Chutney

When the Cooker announced JFI theme on Carrots, I knew what I had to cook. I was only happy that I finally was able to make it. This carrot chutney was something we knew for a long time and used to pair with Coconut Puris. The combination is a terrific one and it can't be compared. I remember first eating it during college and then yes, Amma used to make sometime. The chutney is not sweet at all b

Today the house is filled with an enticing fruity, spicy vinegary smell, as I’m making chutney. It’s just as well we’re not getting tired of eating the 35 pounds or so of tomatoes from this year’s harvest, but it is rather slow going. Time to preserve them, I think. I’ve already oven dried and bottled some, but this time I want to make something that will keep well and can be brought out

Akki Rotti with Dill-Coconut Chutney Pretty to look at with vibrating green colours, herbs add lot of flavour, aroma and colour to any food. Few pretty green leaves floating on soups and carefully placed on top of salad or curries, they do brighten up even the simplest food. But does that mean their sole purpose it to serve as a garnish which you can pick and keep aside while eating? Ayurveda,

“I am giddy, expectation whirls me round.The imaginary relish is so sweetThat it enchants my sense.”William Shakespeare This chutney is LONG overdue. On my last chutney post, way back in May, my sweet Greek friend Ivy @ Kopiaste had asked for a fruit chutney.

As a little boy growing up in Pune, I became aware of the fact that the raw green mango (kairi) and the deliciously sweet, ripe mango in spite of being the same fruit are completely different animals. I also understood that a mango stolen from someone else’s yard tastes infinitely better than a store bought mango. It is popular knowledge that the best green mangoes inevitably come from the trees

When I think of raw tamarind, I get transported to my childhoods days, spent in eating those right off the tree! When I was about 8 years old, we lived in a smaller town. The house was surrounded by acres of empty place and there was a big compound enclosing it all. We had many trees like Tamarind, Mangoes and lots of other ones. During summer, when the tamarind tree is full with its yield, my fri

Es domingo, tengo medio kilo de cerezas que han peregrinado desde Obanos hasta mi frigo, tengo un libro que leer, llueve a mares y me sobra tiempo.

Sólo que todavía tengo los dedos morados de haberlas deshuesado a mano.Ingredientes:½ kg. de cerezas200 ml.

Growing up, Ridge gourd was not a vegetable I liked to eat. I have always known Amma making a dal with this, though I never complained, somehow managed to eat without making a fuss. After marriage, when I made that dal, I got strong opposion from hubby dear for this. Reason being that that dal can never be spicy. Amma even now fondly says that she can't make it as well as her mom did. So Ridge gou

Sunday was one hectic day. It was Konda's birthday and you can imagine what ruckus it would've caused. She has been always interested in her birthdays and would always keep saying its her birthday every other month! The first time she understood this concept of celebrating her birthdays, was when she started going to school and seen others getting toffees and gifts. When she was a toddler, one day she came all excited and told me that it was her best friend's birthday and she was given two toffees. In the same breath she asked when her birthday was. Since it falls during summer vacation, we felt bad that she can never enjoy her birthday with her school friends. So she takes toffees to her friends before her school closes for summer.This year too, it was no different. And once the school cl

Il termine chutney deriva dalla parola indiana chatni Oriente, che significa "fortemente speziato" ed è infatti un condimento originario dell'India che di solito consiste in un mix di frutta, (e/o verdure) aceto, spezie e zucchero. Ci sono infinite possibili combinazioni di ingredienti per il chutney può essere dolce o salato e si utilizza per accompagnare formaggi ma anche salumi e carni. Può essere consumato fresco, a pezzettini, oppure tritato (la parola hindi chutni significa anche schiacciare, fare chutni) oppure ancora cotto molto lentamente e poi conservato in barattoli dopo la sterilizzazione ed è in questo modo che sta avendo la maggiore diffusione anche in Europa.L'abbinamento di questi due ingredienti mediterranei è un'idea del libro "Conserve fatte in casa" de "I libri di

Chutney is similar in nature to other table "sauces" or condiments such as salsas or relishes.  With culinary origins based in India, chutney might seem to be slightly more exotic to some folks but it's really a simple sauce to make.  This particular chutney (and there are many varieties, to be sure) works well with roasted meats.Ingredients:1 large sweet Onion, chopped small6 ripe Bananas, chopped small1/2 lb Dried Apricots, chopped small & soaked for 1/2 hour in hot water1 1/2 cups Cider Vinegar2 TBS fresh Ginger Root, peeled & diced1/2 lb Raisins, chopped coarse2 cups Pineapple Juice1 tsp Kosher Salt1 tsp White Sugar1 TBS Curry Powder1/2 tsp Crushed Red PepperCooking Procedure:Place the onions, bananas, apricots & v

Groundnut chutney is made daily and is so common like rice at home. But still the attachment and affinity each of us have towards this is amazing. We have it for chapati, Idli, dosa and many times with Rice too. Hot rice, ghee and ground nut chutney and we are ready for the feast! For many years, we used to get the groundnut grown in our lands. Now we don't take the hassles of transporting it from so far. Still this can't hindered us from enjoying it, in all its form. We have it boiled, roasted and cooked in gravies! Most of the times, we even eat the roasted ones just after dinner too!Roasted Peanuts and Groundnut powder with Garlic, makes my basic things to have in Kitchen. This post covers so many aspects.

Chutney is Indian dressing, which is made from fruits or vegetables with spices and vinegar. It should be smooth and tender.

Nethi Beerakaya aka Silk squash ( Chinese Okra ) tastes more like Ridge gourd except for the smooth skin and the texture similar to zucchini. Nethi means ghee or butter in telugu, this ridgegourd is called so because of its buttery texture when cooked. The flesh is so smooth and spongy, it took just a few minutes to cook completely. We actually found a small farmers market ( just a couple miles away ) with all the Indian vegetables for which i have been searching for years.

I love the smaller variety of Amla much better than the bigger ones. As a kid, I used to visit my friend's place, where they had this Ara Nellikkai tree and it used to yield in loads. And vacation mostly saw us hanging around the terrace, the place where one of the branch peeped in. If it was one thing that I never was able to conquer, and most ardently wanted too, was to climb a tree. I could never get myself do that. So I used to do only thing, that was next best, hang around the place where the branch might be littler lower. But in this case, it was so convenient because we had the terrace near by. The thing with Amla is, once you start eating, you can go on and on. And with the bigger ones, it might be difficult to start but we mostly liked to finish it because we loved the feeling we

Mooli ka paratha dates back to a shot in the past. Those were the times, when we became too involved in experimenting all North Indian food in our Kitchen. It was the time during which Sanjeev Kapoor came to our living room and we had many new wonders shown to us, right there in our house. We were hooked to it. Come Friday and you could see us getting excited to welcome Sanjeev Kapoor and his many wonders. Amma will be ready with her book and I would be back from college by then and be sitting right next to Amma, to catch each and every word that's said without fail. I don't remember if Mooli Paranthas are from his show. But we were taken in by all, that comprises and tagged as North Indian.Mooli Paratha is the best way to eat up a Radish. Atleast for those who don't like this. But for me,

Mais en attendant ces fameux événements, il faut bien manger quelques desserts faciles et rapides à réaliser... alors, quoi de plus simple qu'une Panna Cotta? C'est peut-être pour cette raison de simplicité qu'elle connaît un tel succès!

Ginger has an earthy taste that raises the flavor quotient of many(Indian) dishes. Ginger had been proved to be effective in reducing cold, flu and headaches. It is compared to work as effective as aspirin in thinning the blood. Dried ginger with salt( we used to call Bhavana Allam) aids in digestion too. Ginger is being used for ages for its medicinal values.Coming to the Tomato Allam(Ginger) Nuvvula(Sesame seeds ) chutney, its my husbands one and only favorite chutney he likes to eat with rice. It has been passed down to me from my MIL. Adding sesame seeds and ginger to this chutney add an unique flavor to the basic tomato chutney. For this chutney you need to make sesame seeds spice powder first!To prepare Sesame Seeds Spice Powder( Nuvvula Daniyala Karam ), you need:1 cup sesame seeds1/4 cup coriander seeds1 tbsp cumin seeds6-8 red chilliesIn a pan or kadai take a dab of oil and saute sesame seeds, coriander seeds and red chillies.

Gongura aka Sorrel is called Andhra Maatha( Mother of Andhra Pradesh, India ). Serving gongura pickle(chutney) for any guest is like giving honor to him. Yes its that important. Gongura is full or iron and tastes very sour just like tamarind. Normally tamarind is a must in most of the indian / andhra pickles or chutneys, but this one with sorrel leaves is an exception. I find myself very lucky that day, if i find this one in indian grocery.I am proud owner of this plant. Yes, I have gongura(sorrel) plant in my backyard now, and i made this chutney using the same. Theres a funny history behind planting this plant. Actually my husband doesnt eat any chutneys or pickles, the only green leafy indian vegetables he eat are Amaranth leaves and spinach. Since it was so hard for us to get amaranth leaves here, i bought some seeds saying ( paala thotakura ) Amaranth Leaves seeds and planted them.Once the tender leaves started to sprout i was surprised to find them to be Sorrel plant instead of

This is a very simple chutney but so tasty I couldn't believe till I actually had and also came back to prepare at home. Whenever this is made along with dosa or Idli, I never liked to eat it but somehow that day I just wanted to see how it would taste. It was something out of the world. You should try this and enjoy!Ingredients Needed:Onions - 2 mediumTomatoes - 1 mediumRed Chillies - 5 nosUrud Dal - 2 tbspsHing / Asofotedia - a pinchSeasoningMustard + Urud Dal - 1/2 tspCurry Leaves fewHing / Asofotedia - a pinchMethod to prepare:Chop Onions and tomatoes to fine pieces.Heat a kadai with 1 tbsp Oil.

I wouldn't normally give you two pork recipes back to back but I couldn't wait any longer to post this. It is one of the tastiest things I've eaten in--oh, I don't know--the last ten years??I know it may sound hard to believe but this is one amazing recipe, the spicy chutney blends perfectly with the the pork and the polenta makes it heaven. I don't know if you remember me mentioning weeks back that I didn't care for polenta but Kelly at Love Well sent me a recipe that has changed my ways forever. I'm including it below.If you don't have rhubarb on hand, though I think it's available in many groceries, you could think about substituting something like granny smith apples and tart cherries perhaps.

Tomatoes, the beautiful and highly nutritious red delights add flavor to so many of our foods. I posted about the Green Tomato chutney recently, and so the circle wouldn't have been complete without using the ripe red tomatoes too to make one! So this time, I combined tomatoes with peanuts, onions and spices to make this Roasted Tomato Chutney. We savored this with Rava Dhokla, but you can use this as a dip or sauce with any finger food, even french fries. It might look similar to Marinara sauce, but believe me, the similarity ends at the looks. The spices bring an indian touch, yet peanuts add a crunch that reminds you of the asian cuisine. So hope you enjoy this spicy fusion chutney just as much as we did!!Ingredients3-4 fresh firm tomatoes - chopped finely1/2 cup peanuts - roasted and ground2 tbsp (split pea) chana dal1/2 cup onion - chopped1 tbsp ginger-garlic paste2 tbsp oil1 tbsp red chilli powder2 tsp cumin2 tsp mustard seeds1 tsp turmeric powdersalt - to taste1 tbsp sugarMetho

Its amazing how most of the times, it is the sidekick which brings more flavor to the main course, right? The dips, sauces, pickles and salads make all the difference between good food and great food on a table, so it's important to give due respect to these side dishes and accompaniments which add more value to what you cook. One such experiment I tried last week was with green tomatoes and grapes. The markets are flooded with ripe tomatoes, yet there are so many green ones too that I was tempted to try making a dip using these. Grapes are found in abundance in CA, and when I came across this grape chutney recipe over at Food Network, I couldn't resist the temptation to combine tomatoes with grapes and add some green apple to it to form a nice savoury sauce. With the seasoning and green chillies, it turned out to be a wonderfully successful experiment!Ingredients5-6 large green tomatoes - sliced1 semi-ripe green apple3 cups green seedless grapes1 tbsp salt1/3 cup chopped onions1 1/2

Chutney and Marmalade (buildings 8)My friends kitchen again. I am drawn to the warmth and humanity of this place. The light comes into the room elevating the mundane to the realms of glorious.

Dates and tamarinds have long been favourites for a chutney; Yet recently I discovered this amazing variation which adds raisins and fennel seeds to these to make a wonderful sweet and sour sauce that has a unique flavour and aroma. This Date and Raisin Chutney can also be preserved for sometime. It looks as appetizing as it tastes, and even if the ingredients make you skeptical, I would urge all of you to definitely give it a try. It tastes great with parathas, snacks or as a spread!Ingredients1 cup pitted dates - chopped1 cup raisins (dried grapes)1/2 cup tamarind paste2 tsp fennel seeds1 tsp chilli powder1/2 cup jaggery (or to taste)1 tbsp oil1/2 tsp mustard seeds2-3 slit green chillies - slit and cut into 2-3 piecesMethodTake a pan and dry roast the fennel seeds and mustard seeds over low flame until you can smell the aroma. Grind it to a fine powder using a spice grinder or stone and mortar. Now add this to tamarind, dates, raisins, chilly powder and jaggery and green chillies. No

After securing a less than adequate percentage in my foundation examination during my first year of art school, I was faced with a dilemma. Bribe someone with a lot of money at the school or bribe someone with a little money at the state level and have them direct the school to accept me in the program of my choice for very little money. The second option although the natural choice was easier said than done. It involved traveling to Bombay and dealing with the red tape at the Directorate of Art in the J.J School of Art compound. Of course, after a little research, I did find someone who was willing to push some paper for a little grease on the palms. And since said transaction couldn't be done in broad day light, he suggested I meet him in front of V.T. station at lunch time. There are a number of small food stalls that sell delicious food on the footpath opposite V.T. station, so that was a good option. We met at a man selling vegetable sandwiches out of a cart.

Main St and East St in the Pune Cantonment area, besides being a great shopping neighbourhood, are a hot destination for foodies. Anyone going to camp will ritually stop at 3 places. Marz-O-rin for sandwiches. Budhani for wafers (Potato Chips) and Kayani Bakery for some bitchin' Shrewsbury biscuits. It's the perfect food trifecta that will put you into food coma. The Marz-O-rin chutney sandwiches are one of my favourite foods in the world. I have eaten chutney sandwiches at many restaurants, but none quite like Marz-O-rin. Marz-O-rin started as a small shop selling sandwiches and has become a Pune landmark. I remember ordering a platter or 8 sandwiches for Rs. 3.00. It was money well spent. 8 finger sandwiches with a glass of mango juice and you were in heaven. If you were smart, you would already have paid a visit to Budhani to purchase 100 gm. hot potato wafers straight out of the wok to go with your sandwiches. The great taste of the chutney sandwiches is due to a secret family re
