Break a block of Tamarind in half (this should be about 7 ounces), and soak in the water overnight. See image in notes below for an example of what a block of tamarind looks like.
After soaking overnight, the tamarind will be very soft. Mash it up in the water with a fork, and then use a sieve to remove the pulp.
Add the sugar or jaggery and cook over low heat until the sugar/jaggery is dissolved. If the chutney is very thick, you can slowly add some water until it is the consistency that you prefer.
Add Cayenne pepper and salt.
