Nice... Is this sweet or savory or both? Like the addition of dates to the regular chammanthi.

Wow,that sounds really awesome seena:)
ReplyDeleteI also have never had date chutney.
ReplyDeleteMust adlit it is a clever idea
Seena, this sound like an interesting recipe. How would you eat this chutney. I mean is it good with bread, or by itself or with tea? Please educate me:)
ReplyDeleteDate chutney is unusual. This sounds good, looks nice. I've never had one and there are dates in my fridge.
ReplyDeleteShall give this a go.
Farida, it would be good with bread,roti etc. But here chutneys are served with rice , that we normally do.
ReplyDeleteThis one is little spicy, little sour and sweet too..! Hope you would have noticed the date pickle recipe too.. :)
I just made your chutney!!!! We always have dates at home so it was no hassle. I didn't have curry leaves so I substituted it with ground cumin. Not sure if it was the best decision but it worked fine. I also reduced the amount of green chilly for a less hot dish, as my palate is not built for a too spicy taste:) The result was sweet and sour kind of paste. I loved it and reserved a little for hubby. He is a little picky when it comes to sweet and sour things, so I may end up eating the whole thing myself, which is even better:) Thanks for the recipe!
ReplyDeletelooks very authentic and yum!
