Onion Chutney

September 1, 2009 by Faith 24 Comments

As promised, here’s the recipe for the onion chutney that I served with the Indian Butter Chicken.  You can whip this chutney up in about a minute and the flavor just gets better the longer it sits.  If you like your chutney to have a bit of heat, you can add some minced jalapeno, hot sauce, or cayenne powder.

Onion Chutney

 

1 large onion, finely chopped
2 oz tomato paste

2 TB apple cider vinegar

1 TB honey

1 tsp canola oil
½  tsp paprika

¼ tsp garam masala

¼ tsp turmeric
¼ tsp cumin

¼ tsp salt

¼ tsp black pepper
2 TB minced fresh parsley or cilantro

 

In a small saucepan over medium heat, sauté for 30 seconds to a minute, everything except the onion and parsley/cilantro; let the spice sauce cool to room temperature.  Mix the spice sauce with the onion and parsley/cilantro, and store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.  This stays good for up to a week in the fridge.

    I don’t care for onion but the kids do so long as they’re not plain. I bet they’d really like this.

    I love chutney. I bet this would make an awesome cheese and chutney sandwich (which are quite popular here in england).

    What do you serve it with? It looks delicious. I could see, standing, and just eating it, looking over my shoulder, with every bite.

    It looks amazingly flavorful! I’d love to try this. And what do you know? I think I have most of the ingredients…is it ok if I leave out some of the spices that I don’t have?

      Sophia, You can use whatever spices you have on hand, or you can use a spice blend (like curry powder or 5 spice). If you make it, let me know what spices you end up using! ;)
