Try Adding This Peach Mango Chutney To Your Meal For A Tasty Change
Bring out the peaches!
To make this dish you will need at least two peaches, one mango, sugar, vinegar, coriander seeds, ginger, and chili peppers. Keep in mind that this chutney is meant to be both sour and a bit spicy. But you can choose other ingredients to use.
If you don’t have any peaches around, you can use nectarines, apricots, and plums. As for the mango, this fruit is supposed to add sweetness. Replace it with cantaloupe, papaya, or even banana if needed.
The sugar in this dish is essential, but it does not necessarily have to be white sugar, and it can be honey, caster sugar, or even corn syrup. Make sure you pick the sweetener that you like the most.
As you may have guessed, the vinegar is meant to add acid, but it can be replaced with apple cider vinegar, lime juice, or lemon juice.
When it comes to the spice in this chutney, the coriander seeds, ginger, and chili peppers are there to give heat. Switch these ingredients, though, for things like caraway seeds, garam masala, curry powder, powdered ginger, red pepper flakes, or black pepper.
All that is left for you to do is cook everything in a pot until the sugar dissolves completely. Be patient, as this process takes about 45 minutes or more.
Remember to leave enough headspace in your jars, as the chutney expands as it cools down. Seal the jars and store them in a cool, dry place for a few weeks.
