Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 5 medium Tomatoes
- 1 medium Onion
- 4 cloves Garlic
- 1 inch piece Ginger
- 2 small Green chili
- 60 ml White vinegar
- 50 grams Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon Mustard seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro (for garnishing)
Instructions
Start by finely chopping the tomatoes and onion. Mince the garlic, ginger, and green chilies.
Heat the vegetable oil in a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat.
Add the cumin seeds and mustard seeds to the hot oil. Let them sizzle and pop for about 30 seconds.
Add the chopped onion to the saucepan. Sauté for 4-5 minutes, or until it becomes soft and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic, ginger, and green chilies. Cook for 2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the chopped tomatoes to the saucepan. Stir well and cook for 5-7 minutes until the tomatoes break down and form a thick mixture.
Sprinkle in the turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Mix thoroughly to combine the spices.
Stir in the sugar and white vinegar. Allow the mixture to simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens into a relish-like consistency.
Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.
Serve as a condiment alongside your favorite dishes, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
