Ingredients
200 grams of gooseberry (Carisa)
1 cup jaggery or sugar (as per taste)
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon fennel
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 teaspoon red chili powder
1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
1/2 teaspoon coriander powder
1/2 teaspoon garam masala
2 tablespoons oil
Taste salt
Recipe
– Wash the gooseberry thoroughly and cut them in half and remove the seeds.
– Although seeds are edible but they are removed for smooth chutney.
– Heat oil on medium heat in a pan. When hot, add cumin, mustard and fennel seeds. Allow them to burst and allow them to smell.
– You can be chopped or grinded. Put in the pan and fry for 2-3 minutes until they start soft.
– Add turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder and salt. Mix the gooseberry well to coat with spices.
Now add jaggery or sugar to the pan. Mix the jaggery well to dissolve well.
– Cook it on low flame until the gooseberry becomes soft and the sauce is thick to the desired stability.
– For this you can use water as per the requirement.
– Sprinkle garam masala on the chutney and stir to mix and cook for 2 minutes.
When the chutney is thick, take it off the heat and let it cool. Chutney is ready.
