Does anyone have the recipe for the 3 condiments usually served when

seated in an Indian Restaurant? One is green and spicy what I think is

Cilantro Chutney, one is Brown, and the other is someething made with

chick pea...

Thanks.

The chutneys that you mention might be.... Cilantro as you mentioned, the

brown is most likely a Tamarind sauce that can be bought in Indian/Asian

markets. The chickpea one I am not familiar with, That might be typical to that

particular restaurant. There are many chutneys that are just wonderful... like

the coconut one MMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmm YUM!

 

Here is a link to a site I have used, hope this helps... ~Dee

The green one is Coriander or cilantro chutney. Somewhere I have a recipe

for that. Let me get back to you. The brown one is Tamarind sauce... it's

a bit sweet, right? I don't like sweet but I sure love the green one. The

chickpeas baffle me.....? the ones we go to the 3rd dish is a pickled onion

or else a hot carrot or lime pickle.

few drops of water if the mixture is too dry.
