This is a delightful mango chutney recipe.
It is a perfect blend of sweet and savory, with a bit of a kick from jalapeno peppers. You can easily adjust the amount of heat to your taste.
Chutneys are a wonderful accompaniment to meats and this one works with fish as well.
Traditionally, Indian chutney is served alongside a curry and is used to sweeten up the meal a bit and cool down the heat of the curry.
You don’t need to be a curry fan though to love this chutney recipe.
It’s delicious served with chicken, turkey, pork, lamb or fish.
It is also very quick to make. Once you assemble all of the ingredients, you just simmer them together for 10 minutes and you are ready to serve this wonderful mango sauce over just about anything.
I love the spices in this recipe. The chutney recipe mixes mangoes with warming cinnamon, zesty ginger and some heat from jalapeno peppers, or chili peppers. Of course, you can adjust the heat level to your taste.
Give it a try and let me know what you think.
