Tingle Your Taste Buds With These Simple And Lip-Smacking Recipes Of Mango Chutney

Now, a word of caution here; this mango side dish might just leave your guests disinterested in your full six-course meal, solely as they would be more interested in the recipe of this easy-to-make chutney. So, don't blame us later if your snacks go unnoticed and these chutneys steal the show. There are two variations of chutneys, which we would like you to try. Let's first talk about the green mango chutney. To make green mango chutney you would need:

• 2 sweet and sour mangoes
• 100 grams of coriander leaves
• 4 chilies
• 3 cloves of garlic (we suggest fresh garlic, but you could also use garlic powder)
• 10 grams of ginger/half a teaspoon ginger powder

 How To Make Green Mango Chutney

1. Peel the mangoes, remove the seed, and add them to the grinder.
2. Thoroughly wash your coriander leaves, remove the stems, and add to the grinder.
3. Add chilies, garlic, and ginger to the grinder and grind them to paste.
4. Add a little water to the chutney and then at last add salt and a sprinkle of sugar if the mangoes weren't sweet to begin with.

We are sure you are wondering if garlic and mangoes will taste good together, but the two flavours complement each other so perfectly, that you will start wondering why you have never paired them before. You can serve this green mango chutney with dahi kebabs, chicken seekh kebabs, or even use it to make mango bhelpuri or just let your guests savour it with a bag of chips and they will just fall in love with it. Please make sure that you do not use mangoes, which are too sour or too sweet but just the right amount of both the flavours.
