Kharoli Chutney
Images on Rasoi Buddy are for illustrative purposes only and may not represent the exact appearance of the final dish.
Kharoli Chutney is a magnifique and intensely aromatic condiment from the tribal regions of Central India. We use toasted sesame seeds, known as Kharoli, pounded with fresh green chilies, garlic, and a touch of raw mustard oil. This preparation is a symbol of honest, fire-side cooking where local seeds are turned into powerful flavor enhancers. The taste is remarkably sophisticated—nutty, sharp, and carrying a magnifique roasted character. It is an essential high-quality addition to any simple meal of rice or flatbreads. I love serving this as a premium appetizer or as a spicy spread.
