Almost any vegetables and fruits, spices, and seasonings are used to prepare chutney. One chutney combines, at first glance, incompatible products: sweet fruits, onions, garlic, ginger, curry, hot peppers, nutmeg, etc.

No meal in India is complete without chutney. A couple of spoons of sauce will make everyday food festive and original. Spicy chutneys are served with non-spicy dishes, such as rice. Pastries and flatbreads will go well with all types of sauce.

Smoked paprika - 1 tsp.

Hot red pepper - to taste

Olive oil - 2 tbsp.

6. Mix again, taste. Add salt or lemon juice if necessary. Persimmon chutney is ready. Freshly prepared chutney has a rather spicy taste, and after standing it became less spicy. 7. Transfer the chutney to a small sauce boat or bowl and serve.

8. This sauce combines persimmon and ginger perfectly, the onion adds spiciness, and the smoked paprika adds piquancy. In a word, delicious!
