Allergy Advice

This recipe contains Peanuts, Sesame. People with such allergies should avoid adding such ingredients or try to replace them with better choices.

Ingredients

4

three quarters cup Sesame Seeds

quarter cup Desiccated Coconut

2 Tbs Peanuts

half teaspoon Cumin Seeds

1 teaspoon Red chili powder

half teaspoon Salt

half teaspoon Sugar

1 teaspoon Garlic Powder

Tips

Use black sesame seeds for a more intense flavor and higher nutritional value.

For a spicier chutney, increase the red chili powder or add a dried red chili during roasting.

Make sure to grind the chutney to a coarse texture for the best taste and shelf life.

The chutney can be used in wraps, as a topping for salads, or simply with rice and ghee.

If you prefer a smoother texture, you can sift the chutney to remove larger chunks.

This chutney can also be added to yogurt for a unique, tangy dip.

Directions

In a dry pan, roast the sesame seeds on medium heat until they turn golden brown and start to pop. Stir constantly to avoid burning.

If your peanuts are not pre-roasted, roast them in a dry pan until they develop a light brown color. Remove the skin once cooled.

Lightly toast the desiccated coconut in the same pan until it turns golden and releases a pleasant aroma. Be careful not to overcook it.

In a grinder, combine the roasted sesame seeds, peanuts, desiccated coconut, cumin seeds, red chili powder, garlic (if using), salt, and sugar (if using). Pulse until you get a coarse powder. Make sure not to grind for too long, as the oil from the sesame seeds may start to release, making the chutney clumpy.

Transfer the chutney into an airtight container and store it in a cool, dry place. It will stay fresh for up to 2 weeks.

Notes

Those with sesame allergies should avoid this chutney.

People on low-fat diets should consume in moderation due to the healthy but high-fat content.

Diabetics should be cautious of the sugar content and opt for the sugar-free version.
