57) SALTED GOOSEBERRY CHUTNEY


SALTED GOOSEBERRY CHUTNEY
A REAL LIP SMACKER

Ingredients:
1)    Big gooseberries kept in brine for at least a month – 7 Nos.
2)    Fresh coconut – ½
3)    Medium hot green chilies – 3 Nos.
4)    Ginger – 1 inch piece
5)    Tender curry leaves – 3 sprigs
6)    Mustard seeds – ½ teaspoon
7)    Cumin - ½ teaspoon
8)    Coconut oil – 2 teaspoons
9)    Dry Kashmiri chilies – 2 Nos.
To Make:
Cut open the gooseberries and remove the seeds. Grate the coconut. Peel the ginger and chop to pieces. Put the grated coconut, the ginger, the gooseberries, the green chilies and two sprigs of curry leaves into the food processor. Add a little drinking water and grind to fine paste.
Transfer to a bowl. Put a small pan on the stove. Pour in the coconut oil. Tip in the mustard seeds. When they are almost finished spluttering, add the cumin seeds, the dry chilies and the remaining curry leaves. Stir once and tip over into the chutney bowl. Stir and taste. Add salt only if required since the gooseberries are already salted.
This lip smacking salted gooseberry chutney is an excellent accompaniment to any rice dish.
Enjoy!!!
