What Makes This Mango Chutney Special?
Unlike most mango pickles that are made using kacha aam or raw mango (Ram Kela mango variety), this mango chutney is made using ripened Safeda or Totapuri mango varieties. This chutney is not too tangy and has the perfect balance of sweet and sour flavours. The addition of kiwi is also unique and complements the flavour of mango. This chutney pairs well with all kinds of Indian foods, whether you are eating a paratha, roti-sabzi or dal-rice. You can also use it as a jam and spread it over bread for a yummy fruity toast.

How To Make Mango-Kiwi Chutney | Sweet And Tangy Mango Kiwi Chutney Recipe
Begin by washing and peeling four mangoes and two kiwis. Deseed the mangos and chop them into small pieces. Chop kiwis as well. Now take a deep fry pan and add the chopped mangoes and kiwi. Add one cup of sugar and cover the pan with a lid. Let it cook on low flame till the sugar dissolves. Now remove the cover and mash it all well. Let it cook till the liquid tries out and you get a jam/chutney-like desired consistency. Add pink salt, table salt, roasted cumin powder, and red chilli powder. Mix it all well and turn off the flame. Let it cool down and then refrigerate. Store in an airtight container and it can last up to a month. Click here for the full recipe.
