The Chilli King

Red Chilli Chutney Recipe

During a trip to India a few years ago I ate this chutney in a little restaurant round the corner from where we were staying. It was blistering hot but incredibly good.

Red Chilli Chutney Ingredients

15 fresh red chillies

9 cloves of garlic

1 teaspoon of salt

1 teaspoon of cumin seeds

1/2 cup of natural yogurt

Method

Roughly chop the chillies and soak in a small amount of water for a couple of hours. Them remove them from the water and grind them up in a pestle and mortar, adding the rest of the ingredients. If necessary add a little of the water the chillies were soaking in until you end up with a smooth paste.

Next add the yogurt and stir thoroughly. Serve at room temperature with Indian mains or with some poppadoms and pickles.
