Ingredients : 3
tablespoons dried tamarind pulp
1
cup hot water
2
teaspoons brown sugar
1
teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground fennel
2
teaspoons fresh ginger, grated finely
1
teaspoon salt
Lemon juice to taste
Pinch of chili powder
Method :
Fill a bowl with hot water and soak the
tamarind pulp until the water is cool. Squeeze the pulp with fingers to
remove the pulp from the seeds and until it is dissolved in the water. Then strain through a fine nylon sieve,
pushing all the pulp through. If necessary, add a little more water to
assist in getting all the pulp from the seeds. Add salt, sugar and other ingredients to
the tamarind and stir to mix well. Taste and add more salt if necessary,
lemon juice to sharpen the flavor and if liked, a small pinch of chili
powder.
