"This curry was like a performance of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony that I'd once heard.....especially the last movement, with everything screaming and banging 'Joy.' It stunned, it made one fear great art. My father could say nothing after the meal."
Anthony Burgess

Where life is colorful and varied, religion can be austere or unimportant. Where life is appallingly monotonous, religion must be emotional, dramatic and intense. Without the curry, boiled rice can be very dull."
C. Northcote Parkinson

Date Chutney

 

Ingredients

8 oz pitted medjool dates
1/4 tsp red chili powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cumin powder
3 cup water
1/2 tsp tamarind paste



 

Preparation

This recipe calls for tamarind paste, a sweet-and-sour flavoring made
from the beanlike tamarind fruit. If you can't find tamarind paste,
add 1/2 cup honey and 1/2 cup vinegar to dates during cooking.

Place dates in a medium saucepan and cover with water. Cook until
soft and tender, about 25 minutes. Or cook dates for 15 minutes in a
pressure cooker. Set cooked dates aside to cool.

Puree dates in small batches in a food processor or blender, adding a
little water as needed to make a smooth paste.

Melt tamarind and spices to pureed dates. Stir well. Add more water
as needed to make a thick sauce.
