Mango Chutney (Kairi Ki Chutney)
Ingredients
50 grams Malt Vinegar
1/2 tsp dried Chillies, crushed
6 whole Cloves
6 whole Peppercorns
1 its roasted Cumin seeds
1/2 tsp Onion seeds
Salt to taste
175 gm Sugar
450 gm Unripe Mango, peeled and cubed
2 inch long finely sliced Ginger
2 cloves Garlic, crushed
A thin peel of 1 Orange or lemon (optional)
Method:
- In a saucepan, heat vinegar with the chillies, cloves, peppercorns, cumin and onion seeds, salt and sugar. Simmer until the flavours of the spices infuse into vinegar, about 15 minutes on low heat.
- Add the mango, ginger, garlic and orange or lemon peel, if using. Simmer until the mango is mushy and most of the vinegar had evaporated.
- When cool, pour into sterilized bottles. Leave for a few days before serving.
Recipe secret: Try to use very raw mangoes. If using a little ripe ones, then put slightly less sugar.
Serving: Makes 450 grams / 2 cups
