Sweet Dates Chutney

Think of Mumbai street food and besides Vada Pav you think of Bhel Puri . The chutneys are the ones that lend the bhel its tanginess. The sweet dates chutney is a must in any Mumbai chaat. Along with the green coriander chutney and the garlic chutney, any snack is a super hit.

15 dates- deseeded, 2 tbsp tamarind paste, 1 tbsp jaggery, 1/4 tsp rock salt.

Grind together all the ingredients till smooth and viscous.Strain and store.Keeps for a week when refrigerated. Can be served with hot spicy snacks like samosa, pakodas, vada pav etc and chaats.
