This easy tamarind chutney is so good I could drink it. It is super easy and the black salt give it the right funky taste you want. It is great to dip samosa, papadam, and even spring rolls.
Black salt is very cheap and you can get it at most ethnic store or online.

The black salt isn’t necessary but it give it an exotic flavor that makes it authentic. It will still be very good without it.
