Mango chutney

When mangoes are in season they just seem to be everywhere. Everyone loves mangoes and they taste good almost every way you try them. Think of the options and they line up.. pickles, pachadi, sweet chutney, sambar, dal, shakes, lassi...... oh oh and the line is still going on.. :)

I love this chutney that is very simple to make and stays in the fridge for quite a while. Love to eat this with rice and dal... a perfect combi i feel. And cos it stays for a longer time we get the option to try it with different items too

Serves... can be refrigerated

This is what u'll need....

Hing - a pinch
Salt to taste
Red chilli powder 1.5 tspn
