Re: Apricot chutney - recipe needed
Edit:
actually I just realized i was thinking about peaches...instead of appricot....lol...
peaches--- peeled and cut into cubes
salt
red pepper
sugar or brown sugar
lime/lemon juice
lime/lemon zest
little orange juice
little katchup
cinamon stick or powder
chaat masala.
Combine all the ingrdients in a pot and leave the whole thing on mediumish heat... stir ocassionally... soon sugar will turn into liquid, juices will start come out from the apricot.. let the thing cook till it gets thick. You might want to use a potato masher kind of thing...it will help break down appricot....
Edit: oh... I guess you did...:D
Re: Apricot chutney - recipe needed
take sum dried khoobanis
wash them n then boil in water.
wen become soft after 15-20 mins usually.
wait untill it becomes cold....put all in the blender and grind until smooth texture.
turn off blender.
again on stove now u add sugar, salt n red pepper...sugar shud be more than other two.
boil it until ur desired thickness.
cold chutney serve n u can save it in an airtight bottle or jar for many days.
i use to make it for dahi bhally and diff types of chaats and yes for sweet potato.
