Sweet Sour Mango Chutney
Sweet Sour Mango Chutney– prepared with raw mangoes, jaggery and few indian spices. My mom used to make this every year during summer, as raw mangoes will be available in plenty. Though we have mango trees, we never get a chance to taste the ripe mangoes, thanks to monkeys coming home and making tantrums. Finally, we end up plucking all the raw ones. And what we make with these big batch of raw mangoes are Raw Mango Chutney, Aam Ka Panna and this Sweet Sour Mango Chutney. And yes!, Mango pickles which she makes very rarely.
Sweet Mango Chutney makes a great side dish for parathas. As a child, I have tasted this sweet chutney at my aunt’s place, which I love but was prepared with sugar. My mom makes it with jaggery, as…. do I need to tell you which one is better? :). In this recipe, I have used 50-50 and prepared in a traditional way. You can prepare on stove for instant result, but will require a bit of labour stirring continuously till the jaggery melts and later to get a thick consistency. So, here it goes.
