An authentic Indian specialty cooked with freshly ground roasted spices, caramelised onions, and aromatic herbs in the traditional style.
Deseed the dried red chilies and soak them in warm water for 30 minutes, then drain.
Coarsely grind the chilies with the garlic, cumin seeds, coriander seeds, salt, and 2 tablespoons of water into a thick, textured paste.
Transfer the chutney to a clean, dry glass jar.
Heat the mustard oil until it smokes, cool it slightly, then pour it over the chutney and stir well.
Rest the chutney for 1-2 days before serving so the flavours mellow and deepen.
Serve in small spoonfuls with bajra roti, dal, or any Rajasthani thali.
