Best Ginger Mango Chutney Recipes

CRANBERRY & ORANGE GINGER MANGO CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Directions: Combine all items in a sautee pan on the stovetop and bring to a rapid boil and then turn down the heat and let it simmer until desired thickness is reached. For me this was about 20 minutes but will vary on how thick you want the chutney and the rate/heat of your simmering on your stovetop. I could see this being "done" for some people at about 10-12 minutes and for others, 30 minutes. Yields: approximately 24 ounces of chutney (3 small glass jars). Will keep in jars in the refrigerator for week(s) so you can make a large batch at once. Use common sense but it will keep for quite a long time. Optional: If you want heat and a kick, you could add a pinch of cayenne, red pepper flakes, or chili powder. The TJ's ginger mango chutney has a bit of heat from the red peppers and the heat plays off the sweet from the fruit and it's a wonderful combination. Other warm spices include nutmeg, cardamom, garam masala, or even curry if you like it. If you want to turn this into more of a sweet jam/preserves, add vanilla extract. If you have lemon, orange, or other specialty extracts, they could work well, too. Add additional fruit (I'd start with about 1/2 cup) or substitute any fresh or dried fruit such as raisins, dates, currants, craisins, apricots (fresh of dried), peaches, pears, plums, nectarines, etc. You could use alternate sweetening methods such as using stevia, maple syrup, agave, or alter the sugar proportions to taste. Note the Ocean Spray Cranberry Sauce recipe starts with 1 c water to 1 c sugar. If you are tweaking the spices and flavors, my suggestion would be to take half the batch and pour it into a jar(s). For the other half, make the tweaks and optional add-in's so that you have some diversity (and also if you didn't like the tweak you chose, half the batch is 'safe')
