This winter, we are sure that you all must have enjoyed a bowlful of guavas with some chaat masala atop? Some of you must have gone to the extent of making yummy guava jams, jellies and murrabbas, but have you ever thought or made its chutney? Yes, there is a thing called guava chutney, or amrood ki chutney. This chutney is slightly spicy, tangy and pungent in taste - a perfect accompaniment with your chilla, sandwich, idli or cutlets. And the best part is that this yummy side dish can be prepared in just few minutes. With a perfect blend of guava, garlic cloves, spices, coriander and a sprint of lemon, guava chutney is quite capable of bringing back the raw flavours of Indian cuisine back to your plate.
Talking about guava's nutritional value, the crunchy green fruit comes loaded with fibre, which helps boost our digestive system and controls our hunger pangs.

The humble fruit is rich in manganese too, which is known to help the body absorb other key nutrients from the food that we eat.
