Making Sweet & Sour Chutney
Heat some water in a saucepan. Add tamarind and dates/raisins. Boil until the tamarind is soft enough. Then add jaggery, dry ginger powder, coriander powder, cumin powder, chilli powder and salt. Mix and cook until the jaggery melts. Turn off the heat and let the mixture cool down completely. Then, grind the mixture into a fine paste. If the chutney is too thick, you can add some warm water. The consistency should not be too thick. Sweet & Sour Chutney can be stored in a glass jar for 15-20 days without refrigeration.
