Tomato chutney grilled cheese

Ingredients

Chutney

  • 1/2 teaspoon, black mustard seeds
  • 1/4 teaspoon, Asafoetida (Hing)
  • 3 shallots (or 1 small red onion), finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon, grated garlic
  • 1 teaspoon, grated ginger
  • 4 Thai chillies, finely chopped
  • 1 pound, chopped tomatoes
  • 1/2 teaspoon, cayenne chilli powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon, ground coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon, ground cumin
  • 2 tablespoon, red wine vinegar (or white vinegar, rice vinegar, or apple cider vinegar)
  • 1 tablespoon, brown sugar
  • Salt to taste

To assemble

  • Sliced bread (sourdough, Italian, French, etc)
  • 1 cup, shredded white cheddar
  • 1 cup, shredded pizza mozzarella
  • Chopped fresh coriander
  • Room temperature butter

Directions

1. In a saucepan heat olive oil on medium heat and add mustard seeds and Asafoetida. Allow seeds to sputter and crackle for a few seconds and then add in onion, garlic, ginger, and chillies. Saute until softened and fragrant.

2. Next add in the tomatoes, chilli powder, coriander, cumin, vinegar, sugar, and salt to taste. Bring to a simmer and cook on medium-low heat for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally until jammy and thickened. Remove from heat, and allow to cool.

3. To assemble the sandwich, butter 2 pieces of bread on one side. Spread chutney on the other side of each slice and sprinkle chopped coriander over.  Top one slice with a generous handful of both types of cheese. Place the other slice of bread on top, with the buttered side facing upwards.

4. Heat a grill or pan on medium heat. Place sandwich on pan, and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until deeply golden and crisp, and gooey in the middle.

5. Slice in half and enjoy piping hot!
