Creamy Moutabel also called Mutabal is part of the Middle East Cuisine is made from Roasted Eggplant. A delicious way to add in your family’s diet aubergine a very healthy but much-disliked vegetable. Serve it as a part of Mezze Platter or for the Tailgating you host next?
The very thought was different and sounded strange till I remembered the sweet chilli sauce that we used to buy. Must thank my group of BMers they came up with amazing dishes. New to me was this Jalapeño Jelly that Sandhya suggested.
I made three things from the chillies one was this Ajika /Adjika a Georgian Red Chilli Dip, second was this jelly and this was chilli pickle. I think I better buck up and click pictures of the chilli pickle before the girls discover it.
For making this Jelly you need pectin. Now I was worried and wondering if I can pick it up in Panaji, Goa. One of my friends who owns a store where she sells amazing chocolates and stuff like this happened to message saying she has pectin for sale. The rest was simple.
I used oil and the chillies I used are generally used to make fish curries here in Goa. The amount used is 1-2 for a full coconut (they are very hot). My hands were burning till the evening.
