Green Apple Chunda

The tanginess of the green apple with the sweetness of jaggery and Indian spices makes this chunda super delicious. Try it with a toast or parantha!

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 green apples
  • 1 tablespoon ghee
  • ¼ teaspoon fennel seeds (saunf)
  • ¼ teaspoon nigella seeds (kalonji)
  • ¼ teaspoon cumin seeds (jeera)
  • ¼ teaspoon mustard seeds (rai)
  • 2 tablespoons jaggery powder
  • ¼ teaspoon black salt
  • 1 teaspoon cardamom (choti elaichi) powder
  • ¼ teaspoon garam masala

METHOD

  • Peel the green apples and grate them.
  • Heat a pan and add the ghee. Once it melts, add the fennel, nigella, cumin and mustard seeds. Once they splutter, add the grated green apple and cook it for 2 minutes.
  • Now add the jaggery powder. The jaggery and apple will combine into a thick paste. Add a pinch of salt, cardamom powder and garam masala. The mixture should turn glossy and come together.
  • Turn off the flame and let the chunda cool down before storing it in an air-tight container.
