-
Saute till the tindora turns soft. Simmer and cook the veggie till done. Keep stirring every now then for even cooking. Let it cool down to room temperature.
-
Take all the cooked ingredients in a mixer and grind together to coarse paste. Heat a pan adding all the seasoning ingredients, when it splutters, pour the chutney and saute for minute.
-
Easy and wonderfully delicious tindora chutney is ready to serve with hot steamed rice.
Notes
-
I would advice cutting the tindora in to thin slits because they get cooked faster.
-
Water is not necessary while cooking the tindora, oil and the water oozed from the veggie is sufficient to cook till soft.
-
The chutney tastes best when heat from green chillies and tamarind is bit high.
-
Water is not needed to grind the chutney and you can blend to coarse or fine paste as per your preference.
