The burst of flavours that come from this chutney are just out of this world! Chutney is uaually a condiment that originated from India, specifically East India and comes from the word "chatni" which means strongly spiced. Chutneys usually consist of a mix of vinegar, sugar, chopped fruit and spices and are traditionally served with curried foods. There are so many different ways of making chutney. When it comes to spices you can use cardamom, ginger, all spice, cinnamon, nutmeg and even cloves. For the fruits you can use raisins, peaches, mango, apricot, tamarind and even most citrus fruits would work well. Herbs that you can add to chutneys include coriander and even mint. All these wonderful combinations of tart, sweet flavours and a touch of aromatic spice really compliments strongly flavoured dishes especially meat. Serve the chutney as a side to accompany curries, meats one even breakfast options.
