Serving

2 red onions , large
1/2 tbsp tamarind paste
2 -3 dried red chilies
1 tbsp red lentil , bean
1 tbsp coriander powder
2 tbsp salt (to taste)
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1. Peel and dice the onions into big chunks.
2. In 1 teaspoon of oil fry the red lentil bean lightly switch off stove and add the red chillies to fry in the remaining heat of the oil. Take care not to burn it!
3. Transfer it into a blender and powder them with salt and coriander powder. Keep aside.
4. Add the rest of the oil in a hot pan and fry the onions till transparent. Do not over brown them. Spread this on a plate and let cool.
5. Add the onions and tamarind paste to the blender and blend. If you like little chunks leave them coarse or you can smooth it out.
This freeze well. Enjoy with chips or some carrots, celery and broccolis. You may also add a hint of cream cheese right before using to give it an even creamier taste or just for a variation.
