What makes this mango chutney special?
Unlike most mango pickles that are made from raw mango or Ram Kela mango varieties, this mango chutney is made from ripe Safeda or Totapuri mango varieties. This chutney is not too spicy and has the right balance of sweet and sour flavours. The addition of kiwi is also unique and enhances the flavour of mango even more. This chutney goes well with all kinds of Indian food, whether you are having parathas, roti-sabzi or dal-rice. You can also use it as a jam and spread it on bread to make a delicious fruity toast.
