Instructions
Pick and remove stalks from 12-15 dried red chilies. Bring 1 cup water to a rolling boil. Peel 6-8 cloves of garlic and set aside.
Add the red chilies to the hot water and set aside for 15 minutes. This will soften the chillies and makes it easier for grinding. In the mean time heat 3 tablespoons oil over medium flame and let cool.
After 15 minutes drain the softened chillies from water. Add them to a grinder jar
. Also add peeled garlic cloves and 1 teaspoon cumin seeds.
Add 1 tablespoon jaggery and salt to taste. Blend to a smooth paste. Now add 1 tablespoon lemon juice and little water if needed. Blend again to a smooth chutney.
Now add the warm oil and blend again very well.
Transfer garlic chutney to a clean glass jar and store in refrigerator. Use as side dish or dip for snacks and while making chaat recipes.
