Category: Savory Fruit Dishes, Vegan
Makes 4 to 6 servings
Inspired by the tree in my backyard, which sheds tart apples by the bucketful, this recipe consistently remains a big hit, year after year. You could also try this recipe using unripe tart peaches, nectarines, or mangoes in place of the apples. Serve as a side dish with Grilled Chicken in Spicy Sauce (see Non-Vegetarian Fare), Potato Salad with Yogurt (see Salads) and a rice or Indian flatbread.
1 1/2 tablespoons Basic Ginger-Garlic Paste or store-bought
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large finely chopped onion
1 fresh green chili pepper, such as serrano, minced with seeds
1 pound tart apples, such as the Granny Smith or pippin, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro, including soft stems
1. Prepare the ginger-garlic paste. Heat the oil in a nonstick wok or sauce pan over medium-high heat and cook the onion until golden, 2 to 4 minutes.
2. Add the green chili pepper and the ginger-garlic paste and cook, stirring, over low heat about 1 minute.
3. Add the apples, salt, and pepper, and cook, stirring, another 2 to 4 minutes. Mix in the cilantro and cook another 2 minutes. Transfer to a serving dish and serve.
VARIATION: Mix the finished dish into a bowlful of nonfat plain yogurt, add some dry-roasted cumin and cayenne pepper and serve as a raita (yogurt side dish) with grilled fare.
