The BEST Mango Chutney Recipe

I experimented quite a few times - more than there are recipes on the blog for - to get one which is like they do in Indian restarants. The other recipes http://laviealapetiteferme.blogspot.fr/2017/10/mango-chutney.html are very good if you want something a bit fresher, perhaps with cheese. I discovered the key is using enough sugar to give that lovely shiny look that the proper stuff has. Strangely I failed to find info on this anywhere on the internet!

600g really ripe mango

100ml vinegar

Juice of 1 lemon

500g sugar

Pickling spices, eg cardamon, cumin etc.

Optionally poppy seeds

Cut the mango in to small chunks (however big you want the chunks in your chutney to be)

Put in a pan with the lemon and cook until the chunks are clear all the way through and starting to go a bit muchy (or cook more if you want a smoother chutney)

Add the vinegar, spices and sugar and cook until a set is reached

Put in to sterilised jars
