Whether you're looking to elevate a weekday dinner or impress guests at a gathering, this homemade chutney is a must-try addition to your recipe repertoire.
Peel and dice the mangoes and apples into small, even pieces. Set aside.
Finely chop the red onion, and grate or mince the fresh ginger and garlic. Prepare the spices and measure out all remaining ingredients to streamline the cooking process.
In a medium saucepan, combine the red onion, grated ginger, and garlic with the white vinegar, brown sugar, and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves.
Stir in the diced mangoes, apples, and golden raisins into the saucepan.
Add the ground cumin, ground coriander, ground cinnamon, red chili flakes (if using), and salt. Mix well to evenly coat the fruit with the spices.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then lower the heat to a simmer. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 25–30 minutes or until the fruit softens and the mixture thickens to a jam-like consistency. Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent sticking or burning.
Taste the chutney and adjust seasoning, adding more salt or chili flakes if desired.
Once cooked, remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the chutney to cool slightly. The chutney will thicken further as it cools.
Transfer the Mango Apple Chutney to sterilized jars for storage. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Serve as a condiment with grilled meats, as a topping for cheeses, or as a flavorful spread for sandwiches.
