Ingredients

  • 3 large red onions, sliced
  • 4 -5 garlic, sliced
  • 1 small piece ginger, grated
  • curry leaf, a few
  • 1/2 tablespoon chili powder
  • 2 -3 teaspoons jaggery
  • 1 tablespoon tamarind extract (or use a small lime sized ball with minimum water to extract the pulp)
  • 3 teaspoons oil
  • salt, as needed

Method

  • Heat oil in a pan, add the curry leaves, onions, ginger and garlic and saute until the onion starts to brown.
  • Add the chili powder, salt, tamarind extract and continue to cook on low heat until the onion comes together 20-25 minutes.
  • Add the jaggery at the end when your required consistency is reached.
  • Continue to cook for a few more minutes until the jaggery is incorporated well.
  • Enjoy with rice, idli, dosai (I don't like those at all), chapathi or stringhoppers.
  • This condiment can stay for at least a week refrigerated.
