This week on my trip to supermarket, I
was very attracted to brightly colored red chilies.
Chutney is on my mind!!
Chutney is on my mind!!
Chutney seems like a bright idea because it
pairs appropriately with all kinds of snacks. The tricky part is chopping.
Have to be very careful during chopping,
accidents can happen. For example, you might rub your eye after chopping (if this happen,
rush to the sink and wash thoroughly with cold water and then use ice pack to
cool the eyes)..Your fingertips may also burn (use cold cream, okay?)
Next, plan what ingredients would you use to make
your chutney unique. Each time I make, it turns out differently. (I am
creative, you see) I cannot recreate the same taste again.
So, this time I used:
100gms red chilies
6-7 garlic pods
1small red capsicum (roasted over open
flame)
1tsp red chili powder
1tsp salt
1tsp sugar
1tbsp vinegar
Put it in the food processor and grind
it to rough paste.
Transfer the paste into a glass jar and
add 1/2cup olive oil
Are you ready to eat? WAIT!
Now wait a minute. It is not ready yet.
You have to let it rest for one full week.
Close the lid airtight and cover it with
sling film - A new product in Indian market. Ekdum new!! Check out Asahi Kasei India.
Asahi Kasei India cling film is more
manageable than other wraps, because it is thicker and firm and it does not
does get squashed easily. Moreover, the box has a saw-like blade on its rim that makes
it easier to cut out the film easily. I am using this for covering most of my
foodstuff and fruits that are stored in the fridge.
I found this to be perfect choice to
cover my bottle of chili chutney. My bottle will be kept on my dining table for
week till it is ready to consume.
Later, I will invite you for Hi tea
perhaps
