I begged for this recipe at my favorite Indian restaurant. It is quite unlike any other onion chutney recipe that I've tried. It is surprisingly simple and full of taste. The ketchup and vinegar produce an orange hue and preserve the crunch of the onion. Serve as a garnish with toast. Try it!

Tips:

  • Use a variety of onions. White, yellow, and red onions each bring their own unique flavor to the chutney. For a more complex flavor, use a combination of all three.
  • Don't be afraid to caramelize the onions. This step takes a little time, but it's worth it. Caramelized onions are sweeter and more flavorful than raw onions.
  • Add some spices. A little bit of spice can really brighten up the flavor of the chutney. Try adding some chili powder, cumin, or coriander.
  • Use a good quality vinegar. The vinegar you use will have a big impact on the flavor of the chutney. Choose a vinegar that is flavorful and has a good acidity.
  • Let the chutney mature. The flavor of the chutney will improve over time. Let it sit for at least a week before serving.

Conclusion:

Onion chutney is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used to add flavor to a variety of dishes. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for something to add a little extra zing to your meal, give onion chutney a try. You won't be disappointed!
