Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium ripe mangoes (peeled, pitted, and diced)
- 1 tablespoon lime zest
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger (finely grated)
- 2 small garlic cloves (finely minced)
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon ground coriander
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon neutral oil (e.g., vegetable or canola oil)
Instructions
Prepare the ingredients by peeling, pitting, and dicing the mangoes into small cubes. Zest and juice the limes as required.
In a medium saucepan, heat the neutral oil over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the pan and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
Stir in the ground cumin, ground coriander, and red chili flakes, cooking for an additional 30 seconds to bloom the spices.
Add the diced mangoes, lime zest, lime juice, granulated sugar, white vinegar, and salt to the pan. Stir well to combine.
Increase the heat slightly and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
As the chutney cooks, use the back of a spoon to gently mash some of the mango pieces for a slightly chunky texture.
Continue cooking until the mixture has thickened to your desired consistency. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Remove the chutney from the heat and allow it to cool slightly before transferring it to sterilized jars or an airtight container.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 weeks. Enjoy as a side condiment or as a flavorful addition to your favorite dishes!
