Steps:
- To make tamarind juice, put the pulp in a bowl and cover with 1 cup boiling water. Stir well and let soak for 10 to 15 minutes. Set a fine-meshed strainer over another bowl, add soaked tamarind and press hard with a wooden spoon to extract the juice. This should yield 1/2 cup tamarind juice. Discard the solids left in the strainer. (If using prepared tamarind juice, skip this step.)
- Add brown sugar and salt and stir to dissolve, then add onion, chile, ginger and diced mango and toss gently to combine. (Chutney may be prepared several hours in advance.) Just before serving, add mint and cilantro, if using.

MANGO TAMARIND CHUTNEY
Steps:
- 1. Place the tamarind pods in a saucepan with enough water to cover and bring to boil. Remove the pot from the heat and allow the pan to cool. Pull the pods apart and mash the seeds to remove most of the pulp. Strain, reserve the liquid, and discard the seeds. Use a grinder to grind the mango and ginger together, then combine the mango and ginger with the tamarind liquid. Add the remaining ingredients.
- 2. Simmer over low heat until the mixture thickens, about 90 minutes. Stir frequesntly to avoid the mixture from sticking to pan. Remove the mixture and move to sterilized jars. Store in fridge.

Number Of Ingredients 13
Steps:
- 1. Prepare the cumin seeds and chaat masala. Then, in a blender, blend together the ginger, chili peppers, mint leaves with about 1/2 cup of the water to make a smooth paste.2. In a large non-reactive saucepan, mix together the jaggery and 3 cups of the water (disregard any lumps they will melt when heated) and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, until all the clumps dissolve completely, 3 to 4 minutes. Pass through a fine-mesh strainer to remove any impurities. Return the jaggery to the saucepan and add the ginger-mint mixture, mango or tamarind powder, chaat masla, paprika, ground ginger, cumin, salt, and black salt.3. Bring to a boil over high heat Reduce the heat to medium-low, and simmer, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. The sauce should be like a semi-thick batter. Mix in up to 1 cup of water if the sauce thickens too quickly. Adjust the seasoning, transfer to a bowl, then let cool. Serve at room temperature. Or transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate about 2 months, or freeze about 1 year.VARIATION: Try this with applesauce and lemon juice. Use about 4 cups of applesauce and about 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice instead of the mango powder and water. Adjust the salt and sugar, as needed.From "1,000 Indian Recipes."

SPICY CORN PAKORAS WITH MANGO-TAMARIND CHUTNEY
Crisp and deeply seasoned, pakoras are Indian fritters that can be made from almost any vegetable. To emphasize the corn flavor here, fine cornmeal joins the more traditional chickpea flour - along with fresh corn. A ridiculously flavorful chutney, which is sweet, hot and a little sour, accompanies the dish. But a jarred version from the supermarket would certainly work in a pinch.

Steps:
- In a mixing bowl, combine chickpea flour, all-purpose flour, cornmeal, salt, baking powder and turmeric.
- In a food processor, grind corn kernels to a rough purée. Add purée to flour mixture and stir well to make a stiff batter.
- Put ghee in a small pan over medium-high heat. Add cumin, fennel and mustard seeds. When seeds are lightly toasted and begin to pop, pour mixture into the batter. Add chile, scallions, cilantro and ginger, and stir well. (Batter may be prepared several hours in advance.)
- Pour vegetable oil into a cast-iron skillet to a depth of 1 inch. Heat on medium-high until oil looks wavy. Using two large soup spoons, carefully slip morsels of batter into the oil, working in batches if necessary. Adjust the heat so pakoras brown gently on one side, about 2 minutes. Turn pakoras and brown on other side, about 2 minutes more. Remove with a slotted spoon or spatula and blot on paper towels. Serve hot with lime wedges and mango-tamarind chutney, or another chutney if desired.
