Tauco (salted yellow bean) is the main ingredients in this exotic flavour relish. You might find tauco in cans at chinese grocery shops. Since it is salted, you can keep it for a long time.

- 5 cloves garlic
- 1 tsp ground ginger or apiece of root ginger (1 cm long)
- 1/4 cup tamarind water
- 1 tsp brown sugar
- 4 green chillis or 1 tsp chilli powder
- 6 shallots or 1 onion
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 tbs vegetable oil
Crush the garlic by a liquidizer. Seed the green chillis and slice them finely. Slice the shallots or onion. Peel and chop ginger into very small sticks. Saute the shallots into vegetable oil for about 1 minute. Add the tauco, garlic paste, sugar,tamarind water, and water. Stir them then simmer for about 8 minutes. Stir again, still cooking for 1 minute.
