I made a big batch last week. Imli pulp, pureed dates (soaked,boiled and pureed), brown sugar, ginger powder, salt, red chilli powder, cinnamon stick, cloves, zeera powder -->> mix, cook and simmer to get a thick chutney.

Sounds delicious! What do you serve this with?

Of course you can!!!!!!! Dates have a lot of sugar, you're gonna add sugar to make chutney too. Sugar is a preservative. If you freeze it in airtight container, it should last you. I like the idea of doing small batches and containers. Then you can defrost only the amount you need. Not all of it. Sometimes what I do is make plum paste and freeze it. Then when I have to make biryani masala I use it. These kinds of things are very convenient that way.
