  • 8 ounces pitted dates, cut into quarters
  • A 4-inch square piece of fresh coconut, sliced paper thin and cut into ½-inch-wide chips
  • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons scraped, finely chopped fresh ginger root
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh coriander (cilantro)
  • ½ teaspoon fennel seeds
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper

  • How To Cook:
    1. In a serving bowl, combine the dates, coconut, lemon juice, ginger and coriander, and toss them together with a spoon until well mixed. Bruise the fennel seeds slightly by rubbing them briskly between the palms of your hands, then stir them into the date mixture.

    2. Add the salt and a liberal grinding of pepper, and taste for seasoning. Serve at once or cover tightly and refrigerate the chutney for no longer than 2 to 3 days.
