This is another favourite of my husband’s and maybe one day someone’s else too.
Chutney served with curries or as an addition to stews. Choices are endless. This recipe can be used for other fruits, fresh or dried. I have used this recipe to make dried apricot chutney for a friend who has a mango allergy.
