Momo Chutney Recipe
Ingredients:
Recipe :
-
Step 1 Soak the dry red chillies and boil the tomatoes
Soak red chillies in water for 2 hours. Boil water and add tomatoes and cook for 5 minutes.
-
Step 2 Chop the tomatoes and red chillies
Once the tomatoes are blanched for around 7 minutes, take them out of the water and remove skins from them carefully. Roughly chop them and put in the blender along with the soaked chillies.
-
Step 3 Blend a smooth paste
Blend the mix to a smooth paste and add the garlic. Blend again until a semi-thick consistency is achieved. The sauce shouldn't be too thick or too runny, just enough to lightly coat the momo when dipped.
Tips :
-
Adding more oil makes it tastier, but that depends on how much oil you want to consume.
-
Try to always choose ripe tomatoes and use fresh garlic for best results.
-
Soaking the red chillies for at least 2 hours is necessary so that a smooth blend can be achieved.
-
If you want a spicier version of the chutney, add less sugar and increase the number of dry red chillies.
-
Adding a teaspoon on vinegar can help you store the chutney for a month.
