This is a real winner in my book!
I left the lid off the date concoction for cook time of two hours. I wasn't sure whether to keep lid on or off. A lot of the water evaporated so I ended up having to add water because it was very thick.
The flavor after a night in the fridge...one word: WOW.
I made this chutney along with Cilantro Mint chutney to go with Samosas and Chickpea Fritters.

This Tamarind-Date Chutney would be good just to have a staple in the fridge. I can see it going well with a lot of things. It's almost like jam only way better with it's sweet and sourish plum like tang!
It makes a pretty big batch, too.

It makes a pretty big batch, too.,Wonderful and delicious in every way. It was absolutely perfect with the Indian Samosa’s #15348. I actually didn’t have any tamarind paste, but I was able to get a package of tamarind pods. I have never used these before, but I soaked them in water as suggested and scraped the paste off of the seeds after they softened. I ended up with only half the amount that the recipe called for, but it still turned out great. Thanks for posting this recipe.
