Not all of us are Georgians, but like many sauce tkemali.Alone aroma of spices is able to drive mad.Absolutely any meat if it is filed with the sauce gets an unforgettable, absolutely exquisite taste ...
real Georgian seasoning made from plum varieties "tkemali."However, in Russia it is not growing, and we have to get out.We will prepare tkemali of thorns that grows in many gardens and cottages.In principle, you can use any of plum, the main thing - that they are not particularly sweet and ripe.
ingredients that we need: plum, hot pepper (preferably straight from the garden), garlic, red pepper, herbs - dill, coriander, mint (probably a combination of all or any of them), coriander, salt and sugar.
To prepare tkemali of thorns various fragrant herbs add quite a bit, and the only ones that you like.To start boil plums.The bones are removed it is not necessary.Better just to make an incision and remove any branches.We do a couple of green bouquets and put on the bottom of the pot - to add flavor.The sauce must be added quite a bit of greenery, not to spoil the color.Pour a little water (up to a glass for each kg of fruit, but it is possible and less - depending on the softness of the sink) to our tkemali of thorns, that it is not stuck and set on fire.Boil over low heat until tender, stirring occasionally.When the berries begin to unfold as if - can be turned off.Too much tenderize them do not!
Then proceed to wiping the sink.It will help us a colander, but lazy can use a blender or meat grinder, although the classic version involves manual work.We give a little to drain the juice.Greens discard.
8 minutes later, when the bulk of the liquid has drained, swap colander, which is our future tkemali sauce of thorns, to another pot, and give cool.The separated juice does not come out, he can still be useful.
If the volume of the mass of our large, it is best to divide it into pieces to wipe it easier.Wear rubber gloves, pre-washed with dishwashing liquid, to avoid the smell.Wipe by hand, pressed into a circular motion.In the end, it remains a handful of seeds, peel and mash.
Next to our tkemali of thorns add spices.First, Ambassador, pour the sugar and give to stand until completely dissolved.Take a blender, grind it pepper and garlic.Then add them greens.
our Pour puree into a pan, preferably aluminum, t. To. The sauce is burnt.Adding back a little juice to the sauce has become a little more liquid than ready.We put on the fire, add the coriander and red pepper and green mush.
gradually introduce all the spices, stirring continuously and trying.If necessary, you can even add sugar and salt.We bring our weight to a boil and keep on heat for 8 minutes, stirring very active, especially at the bottom.And yet!
Keep sauce tkemali of thorns, the recipe of which is described above, preferably in a cool place.
