Notes

For khatta meetta chutney how much ever tamarind is taken jaggery should be more while boiling u can adjust with sugar if the balance of sweet and sour is not proper.

If the chutney is prepared more not to worry, khatta meeta chutney can be used as dip for samosa or any deep fried and green chutney can be used as bread spread for sandwich.

1/4 cup jaggery
