Kasundi an Indian spicy chutney full of mustard seeds, hint of garlic and ginger - mmm yummy and perfect with just about everything!

ingredients

  • 4-5 kgs tomatoes
  • 150g salt
  • 200g cummin seeds
  • 200g coriander seeds
  • 250ml peanut oil
  • 200g yellow mustard seeds
  • 100g black mustard seeds
  • 100g fresh turmeric or 2 tablespoons turmeric powder
  • chilli to taste
  • 300-450g root ginger, grated
  • 800g sugar
  • 1.5 litres white wine vinegar

directions

  • 1

    Chop the tomatoes coarsely and put in a large bowl. Sprinkle with salt, cover and set aside overnight.

  • 2

    Roast and grind the cumin and coriander seeds. Reserve

  • 3

    Place some of the oil in a hot pan and cook all the mustard seeds gently until they pop.

  • 4

    In another large pan, heat 1/2 cup of oil and cook the cumin and coriander seeds until fragrant. Add the popped mustard seeds and gently blend through.

  • 5

    Drain off the tomatoes and discard the juice (and any of the salt that is still obvious). Place in a large stock pot, with the mustard seed mix, and the remaining ingredients. Simmer gently, uncovered, stirring frequently, for 1 1/2 hours. Set aside to cool before pouring into clean, dry glass jars. Store sealed in the fridge.
