Mango chutney is an easy dip for any starter. If you have a sweet tooth like mine, you will definitely enjoy this chutney. You can serve with bread or any flatbread like naan or paratha. Mangoes make every summer special. We all love them to bits. Whether its Alphonso, Calypso, Kesar or Kensington Pride.
I love eating them raw and also use them in loads of recipes. I love making the puree and storing it in freezer for a treat once season ends. Whether it is mango salsa or mango mousse. If you want an easy breakfast, add them to your overnight oats or vegan chia pudding. If you are in mood for sweets, there is nothing like mango kulfi mango fudge and peda. You can also make a raw mango chutney too when the season begins.
