I am Kamini. Tell us your experience in trying our last recipes of KADHI and Spicy Cabbage. How did you like them? In this issue of "Recipe Secrets", you will find a recipe of Mango Chutney. Chutneys are usually served as an accompaniment to curry but this one is particularly nice with a cheese sandwich or as a dip with papadums.

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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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
