Jharkhand Chilli Chutney

Fresh green chillies pounded with garlic, ginger, salt, and a splash of raw mustard oil into a coarse, fiery, deeply pungent chutney — the essential heat condiment of every Jharkhand tribal meal. Made fresh before eating, it is sharper and more raw than any cooked chutney, and the mustard oil amplifies the chilli's heat. No tribal meal is served without it.
