Provided by Roopa Gulati

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 6

150g wet tamarind, preferably seedless
125g pitted dates
175g jaggery, date palm sugar or light muscovado sugar
1 tsp ginger powder
½ tsp garam masala
1 tsp ground cumin

Steps:

  • Break up the tamarind and dates and put them in a pan with the jaggery and enough water to cover them, about 500ml. Bring to a simmer and cook for 20 mins or until the tamarind is really soft.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and push the pulp through a sieve to remove any fibres. The sauce should be a coating consistency - add a little water if it is too thick.
  • Stir in the ginger powder, garam masala and ground cumin. The sauce should taste sweet and tart - stir in a little more jaggery if it doesn't taste sweet enough. Chill before serving. Will keep in the fridge for three to four days.
