Ingredients
2 cups fresh cilantro, chopped
1 date, pitted and soft
2 tsp raw tamarind pulp
2 garlic cloves ( or substitute with ginger) though garlic may taste better
1/4 lemon squeeze
1 green chili, seeded (optional)
Pinch of cayenne pepper
Pinch of salt
¼ cup water, plus more as needed
Directions:
In a food processor combine all the ingredients and ¼ cup of water. Cover and process until nearly smooth, adding I tablespoon of water at a time to reach the desired consistency, and stopping to scrape sides of the processor as needed.
Notes:
You can use a blender to blend all the ingredients to get a smooth paste like consistency. I prefer coarse like texture of this chutney.
