Sweet, Sour and Hot Chutney (3-in-1)

Very often many of us think of having a chaat party at home, but put it off because we feel that making the many chutneys needed (hot, sweet and sour) is very cumbersome and time-consuming. So here's a easy recipe for a 3-in-1 chutney which you can use for sev puri, bhel puri, dahi puri, ragda pattice etc.

Ingredients
100 gms dates (deseeded and cut into small pieces)
1 small bunch of coriander leaves (finely chopped)
1 inch piece ginger
2 green chillies
1 tbsp jeera (cummin seeds)
3/4 cup tamarind soaked in 1/2 cup water
Salt to taste

Procedure
Boil the chopped dates in a little water for 5-7 minutes till they are soft and pulpy. Grind dates, coriander and all other spices except tamarind in the mixer to a smooth consistency. Empty the contents in a bowl, add salt and thick tamarind water (strained). Mix well and your chutney is ready. If too thick, you can dilute it with a little Bisleri water.
