Khatti Meethi Chutney

#cookpadindia #innovative With Tamarind, Raisins and Dates added to it, a sweet and sour Chutney that actually spruces up almost all the Chaats in our Country. It is a must have one that adds an extra zing to different Chaats and snacks. The best part is that it can be stored in the refrigerator and used for a long time upto 2 months or more. I usually make both the versions, first one with Jaggery and the second one with Sugar. The process remains the same for both. In this particular one, I have used Sugar. It's a perfect accompaniment to various Chaats, Dahi Bhallas, Pakoras etc. It's also an excellent Dip for many a delightful Snacks. The uses are many and the list is endless. You just go on and on with this amazing Chutney. A little tangy and a bit sour, it's just right for many an occasions.

Because Raisins are added in this. Therefore use Sugar as required. Blend into a smooth semi solid paste and store in an airtight container. Use it according to taste and preference. Make it thin by adding little water whenever you need a thinner consistency Chutney.

* Step 3

Use it according to taste and preference. Make it thin by adding little water whenever you need a thinner consistency Chutney. It's best if it's kept in the freezer if you have made it in larger quantities. However it stays good for upto 4-5 Months in the freezer. If desired, keep a major part of it in the freezer in such cases. Simply thaw before using. And always use glass bottles or canisters for storing it. Enjoy!
