Re: Imli Chutney recipe
Im confused now :(
isnt there a simple simple recipe
Re: Imli Chutney recipe
LB... I just take some imli water. Or if you don't have that. Then just talke like half packet of imli, add almost 2-2.5 cups of water and put it on heat. Break the pulp while it is in the water and on heat. Keep the heat to mediumish heat and cook for like 30 mins. This way you i'll be able to extract most from the pulp. Then strain the mixture. Make sure you get all the liquid out of the pulp. Put that water back in the pot, add sugar or brown sugar, salt, red pepper, and little chaat masala. Let it cook on medium low heat for atleast 30 mins. If you feel the need of cooking it longer, cook another 15-20 mins. But be careful because the chutney thickens up a little bit when it cools down.
You can also get imi paste from desi grocery store. Take 4-6 tbsp of the imli paste mix it in water, put the water on heat, add your sugar, salt, red pepper... and let it cook for 30 mins or so...
You can do little variations too..i.e. add little ketchup while cooking... gives a yumious taste...
If you want to make lot of chutney only then use the whole packet other wise use less....
Re: Imli Chutney recipe
Thanks Lusi that sounded easy.
So you throw away the pulp??
Re: Imli Chutney recipe
If the pulp still tastes khatta that means if you want you can add little more water and take more juice out of it, if you don't want then just throw it away. If you decide to take more juice out second time don't add too much water...maybe like 1/4-1/2 cup
Re: Imli Chutney recipe
ADRA...wont u be able to get some tamarind/imli concentrate from Indian stores there..??
they are the easiest solutions to making imli chutney....it doesnt have any seeds etc so u wont have to strain it later on...just take some concentrate and add some water(to thin it out as its quite thick) and salt ,red chillies,sugar/brown sugar and zeera seeds and cook till the required consistency...
to prevent it from going bad if u are not going to consume all soon,add a few tsp of white vinegar to it....
Re: Imli Chutney recipe
Use equal quantity of tamarind pulp and dates. Add water chilli pwder and sugar as needed. boil till thick. Strain
Re: Imli Chutney recipe
Adding very thinly sliced red onion and peppers to the imli chutney tastes really good ooo and grated carrots. Oh and the ketchup thing is cool too.
Re: Imli Chutney recipe
Oh cool im going to be in Imli heaven.
chips we hardly get imli, i dont think there will be any pastes :(
Re: Imli Chutney recipe
At our homes we never cook imli chutney. My mother used to do like this: Separate the seeds and grind it on sil batta with some mint, red whole chillies, zera and salt.
Its quite yummy when eaten with arhur ki kitchri.
Re: Imli Chutney recipe
^^ arhur kitchri...what is that??
