Banana Chutney image

Not your usual chutney. This recipe comes from Rarotonga (Cook Islands) and sourced from www.tamarindhouse.co.uk. You can also mix up the fruit combination with papaya, star friut and bananas. Tamarind is sold in blocks in Asian markets. Try and find one without the stones. You can also find tamarind pulp in containers usually with the Thai ingredients. Not quite sure on the final quantity.
