ROASTED-GARLIC CHUTNEY
When you think of chutneys, the word *dry* doesn't usually come to mind - but this chutney with change all that. This potent condiment of roasted garlic, chilies and peanuts is a favorite in the western state of Maharashtra, home of Mumbai (Bombay). Use this chutney as a spicy rub for any meat, fish or poultry prior to grilling or roasting. Or mix it with cream cheese for a great sandwich spread or dip. Note: Tempted though you may be to roast all the ingredients at the same time, following the suggested roasting order ensures recipe success. Some of the spices have a tendency to burn faster when they are mixed with the slower-roasting garlic slices. Recipe courtesy Betty Crocker's Indian Home Cooking.
