For years now I have searched for something -- I must simply not be
looking in the right place. In almost every state-side Indian
restaurant I've been in, the papadam is presented with a trio of
sauces: a sweet light reddish purple sauce, a green cilantro/mint/
onion sauce and a red chili sauce.
I've been told the former is tamarind sauce--I've seen it written as
timerin, tamerin, etc.
I CANNOT FIND A RECIPE! I'm certain it's ME, I'm just not looking in
the right place.
This stuff is addictive, and whenever we go out, I ask for some to go
and some will give me a soup sized bowl of it, and I'll come home and
use it in various things.
But I want to make my own!
I've visited little Indian markets and tried a few of the shelved
items. No match. I've looked for recipes online, but can't find one
(which leads me to believe I'm not looking for the right terms) and
I've even written to my favorite restaurant in another state and
begged for a recipe (to which I received no response, and fear I
offended).
Help!
