Spicy Mango Chutney

Ingredients

Ripe mangoes

2 large, peeled and diced

Red onion

1 small, finely chopped

Fresh ginger

1 tablespoon, grated

Garlic

2 cloves, minced

Red chili pepper

1, finely chopped (adjust to taste)

White vinegar

1/2 cup

Brown sugar

1/4 cup

Ground cumin

1 teaspoon

Ground coriander

1 teaspoon

Salt

1/2 teaspoon

Instructions

1. In a medium saucepan, combine the diced mangoes, finely chopped red onion, grated ginger, minced garlic, and chopped red chili pepper.
2. Add the white vinegar, brown sugar, ground cumin, ground coriander, and salt to the saucepan. Stir the mixture well to ensure the mangoes are evenly coated with the spices.
3. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
4. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mangoes are soft and the chutney has thickened to your desired consistency.
5. Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the chutney to cool completely at room temperature.
6. Transfer the cooled chutney to a sterilized jar, seal it tightly, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. This resting time allows the flavors to meld beautifully.
7. Serve the spicy mango chutney as a condiment with grilled meats, spread it on sandwiches, or use it as a dip with crispy papadums.
