ABOUT Onion Gojju/Onion Relish RECIPE

Onion gojju or "piyava gojju" (onion gojju in Konkani) is a traditional condiment like chutney made with onions, chillies and tamarind. When feeling down, sick or just need something simple and comforting, I make this to enjoy with a bowl of hot steaming "peja" or rice gruel (rice cooked in it's own broth)!

  1. Extract as much water as you can from the soaked tamarind and discard the pulp. Mix the chopped onions and salt in a bowl and mix well, crushing slightly. Leave for a minute or two.
