Title: Coriander, Tomato & Onion Chutney
Post by: issiemc on March 10, 2008, 03:51 PM
This is so so Moorish  :o :o we seem to have it on every meal in our house!
1/2 onion chopped
1/2 red onion chopped
2 fresh tomato chopped up
5 small red chilli chopped
1 Tbs Lemon juice, or half a lemon squeezed
1/2 tsp salt
1  tsp sugar
A very big handful of Fresh Coriander chopped
1 tsp garam masala
1 tsp jeera (cumin) seeds crushed
I put this into my little kenwood chef mini chopper and blend it all up, then put into a dish in the fridge for 1 hours so the flavour all melt into one another
It is so so good.
I now make it in treble quantity because we cant keep up with it  ;D

Sounds fantastic. Are the red chilies fresh or dried?

I use home grown chilli's either fresh or if its winter I have them in the freezer.
It really depend on how hot you like it, we love chilli's  ;)

hi i just wondered if after making this does it get watery from the tomatoes? i've made a similar chutney before and it went quite watery im assuming because the salt draws the moisture out. Just wondered thats all as i like the sound of this and its this sort of thing i make ahead of the other things im making so its out the way. Thanks!

I've just made some of this...the chilli, coriander and lemon is dancing over my tongue as we speak. Delightful! And as you so rightfully say, very moorish. Thanks for sharing  ;D

Note: my only regret with this chutney is that I didn't make more of it...the family have had polished it off this afternoon. Verrrry moorish indeed.

I read your comment before making this, cookingloverloz, so I removed the seeds and pulp from the tomatoes. It's not watery at all.  :D

Fantastic.  Being a Brit abroad in the USA, I have to say this is really seems like a kind of salsa with a twist, but WOW, what a twist.  Great stuff.  My wife and I are addicted.  :D  Many thanks!

Hi Issi,

Do you blend this to a smooth paste like consistency, or do you leave it with some small chunks of onion and tomato still intact?
