Recipe Makes for 2 Cups:

1 28-oz. can whole peeled tomatoes

1/4 cup sugar

2 oz jaggery, broken into pieces

1 tbsp oil

1 tbsp panch puran

8-10 curry leaves

2 serrano chiles, cut into ⅛-inch thick rounds

1½ tablespoons white vinegar

Directions:

Before prepping the ingredients, turn the slow cooker on to the high setting for 15 minutes, until the insert is warmed through.

Drain the tomatoes and coarsely chop them in a food processor. Add the chopped tomatoes, sugar, and jaggery to the slow cooker. 

Heat the oil in a small saucepan on high heat, with a lid handy. Tilt the pan to form a pool and carefully add the panch puran, curry leaves, and chiles to the oil; cover immediately to avoid splattering. As soon as they stop sputtering, transfer oil and spices to the slow cooker. Mix well, cover, and cook on low for 2 hours.

Transfer the chutney to a mixing bowl to cool to room temperature. Stir in the vinegar and refrigerate until ready to serve. 


If you intend to store the chutney for later use, transfer to a sterilized jar, close tightly, and refrigerate for up to 10 days; be careful to avoid contamination by using a clean dry spoon each time you use any and do not return any unused chutney from the dinner table back into a sterilized jar.
