Steps:
- Make the chutney:
- Bring grapefruit, kumquats, shallot, sugar, salt, and 1/4 cup water to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally and lowering heat if needed, until citrus is soft and liquid is syrupy, 45-60 minutes. Stir in vinegar and let cool. Cover and chill.
- For the steak and assembly:
- Toast coriander seeds in a small skillet over medium heat, tossing occasionally, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Let cool, then finely grind in spice mill or mortar and pestle. Mix ground coriander, coffee, salt, brown sugar, cocoa powder, and pepper in a small bowl.
- Prepare a grill for medium-high heat; lightly oil grate. Season steaks generously with rub (you'll have some left over). Grill steaks, turning occasionally, until lightly charred and cooked to desired doneness, 8-10 minutes for medium-rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes, then slice against the grain. Serve with citrus chutney.
- Do Ahead
- Chutney can be made 1 week ahead. Keep chilled. Rub can be made 1 day ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.

It has a beautiful presentation and would make a wonderful canned gift. Nigella seeds (kalaunji) and fenugreek seeds (methi) can be found at a local Indian grocery store or market. This recipe has been adapted from the Complete Book of Indian Cooking by Suneeta Vaswani.

CITRUS CHUTNEY
Steps:
- Place a small dish in the freezer. Combine all of the ingredients with 2 cups water in a pot and bring to a boil. Decrease the heat and cook on a low boil, covered, for 10 minutes. Uncover and bring the chutney back up to a boil. Uncover and increase the heat so the chutney boils rapidly for 20 minutes. Turn off the heat and place a few tablespoons on the frozen dish. Replace the dish in the freezer. After 5 minutes, nudge the chutney with a spoon or your finger. If it has the proper consistency, it's done. If the chutney is still runny, continue to cook for another few minutes, then test it again. To store in the refrigerator, let the chutney cool to room temperature. Pour into an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 2 months.
- VARIATION: Citrus Marmalade
- For a delicious, easy marmalade, leave out the onion and vinegar, and use just a dash of salt. The ginger is optional.
- Basic Canning
- Canning is a straightforward process that experienced veterans can do instinctively. It's fun and easy, but because detailed procedures must be followed in order to prevent the growth of toxic bacteria, you should first learn from an experienced canner or study one of the books recommended in the Resources section (page 194) if you want to strike out on your own. Describing the full canning process, which results in foods that can be stored at room temperature for up to a year in a cool, dark, place, is beyond the scope of this book, so the preserve recipes that follow are ones that can be stored in the fridge for 1 to 2 months.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use a variety of citrus fruits, such as oranges, grapefruits, lemons, and limes.
- Be sure to remove the pith from the citrus fruits before chopping them, as it can be bitter.
- Use a sharp knife to chop the citrus fruits and onion finely, so that they will cook evenly.
- If you like a spicier chutney, add a teaspoon or two of chopped chili pepper.
- Simmer the chutney for at least 30 minutes, or until it has thickened and darkened in color.
- Serve the chutney with grilled meats, fish, or poultry, or use it as a condiment for sandwiches or wraps.
Conclusion:
Citrus chutney is a versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of ways. It is a great way to add a burst of flavor to your favorite dishes. With its sweet, tangy, and slightly spicy flavor, citrus chutney is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you are looking for a new way to spice up your meals, give citrus chutney a try!
