Alyce’s Kasoundi
What's kasoundi? It is a spicy Indian-style chutney that tastes amazing with everything from curries to cold cut sandwiches. This recipe has been shared with us by Alyce Alexandra. The kasoundi is so flavoursome and versatile, yet made with fairly standard household ingredients, so it won’t cost much to make. For this reason, it makes an amazing gift – you could get four of five jars of kasoundi out of this batch, and gift them to your nearest and dearest.
Recipe Tester Feedback: "This recipe makes a lot of chutney and is packed full of flavour and heat. The chutney is so versatile – so far I have used it on eggs, on wraps, in sandwiches and I'm thinking it will make a lovely curry!" - Shannah
