Mango Chutney
Raise your hand if you like mangoes! I’m definitely raising both my hands right now! Whether enjoyed in a smoothie, stirred into a salsa, added to a salad or simply eaten whole with juice dripping down your chin & fingers, there are endless ways to soak up this exotic fruit.
In France, the Winter months are the ideal time to enjoy ripe & delicious mangoes. With that in mind, I headed over to my local food market to bring home a handful of mangoes & went straight to the kitchen. Apron on, pots & chopping boards out & let’s get cooking!
Sweet, spicy, tangy & fruity, you’ll want to spread this Mango Chutney on everything! From grilled cheese sandwiches, to baked salmon, veggie curries or that ever so luscious cheese-board. It also makes for the perfect gift this Festive season. Simply transfer the chutney into sterilised jars, leave to cool, add some fun labels & see your loved ones enjoy your gift for months to come! Enjoy!
