I made this to go with samosas made with Vegetable Samosa Filling. The only change I made was to blend the entire cooked mixture with my hand blender to make it more like a relish texture and to hide the raisins because DH hates them, lol! I found it too spicy so next time I will add less cayenne, but I am a bit of a wimp when it comes to spices :)
