Dark Mango Chutney Recipes

Steps:

• Cut the mango flesh away from the pit. The pit is shaped similar to an obelisk, so you'll end up with 2 large pieces and 2 smaller pieces from each mango. Roughly chop the flesh.
• In a saute pan heat the oil and add the chile flakes. Be careful not to burn the chile, just toast to flavor the oil. Add the onions and sweat until soft. Add the ginger and bell pepper and saute for 1 to 2 minutes. Finally add the mango and cook for 1 more minute.
• In a separate bowl, combine the pineapple juice, vinegar, sugar, and curry powder. Add this mixture to the pan. Stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a bare simmer and reduce for about 30 minutes, stirring frequently. Season with salt and pepper. Add the raisins and the nuts and transfer to another container over an ice bath. I used a mild yellow curry powder, but if you want it hotter go for red.

Steps:

• Put mango into a large bowl. Sprinkle salt over the mango. Pour water over the mango. Let mango soak for 1 hour to overnight.
• Drain and discard liquid from the mango.
• Stir sugar and vinegar together in a saucepan over medium heat; bring to a boil. Add drained mango to the liquid; stir to coat. Stir raisins, dates, cinnamon sticks, ginger, garlic, and ground dried chile pepper into the mango mixture; bring again to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low and simmer mixture until thickened, about 1 hour. Remove from heat to cool completely.
• Sterilize jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack chutney into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 15 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan combine vinegar, white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, ground ginger, allspice, cloves, nutmeg, chile peppers and salt. Bring to a boil; boil for 1/2 hour.
• Stir in onions, garlic, golden raisins, raisins and ginger and boil for another 1/2 hour.
• Stir in mangos (and almonds if using), reduce heat to low and simmer for 1/2 hour. Pour mixture into sterilized jars, to 1/2 inch below lid level, and seal.

Steps:

• Cut the mango into chunks making sure the skin does not get in there.
• Put the mango flesh into a non-metallic bowl, stir in the salt, cover and leave for 2 hours.
• Put the tamarind pulp into a bowl and pour over boiling water to cover the pulp.
• Cover and leave for 1 hour then drain off the excess water.
• Put the tamarind pulp into a plastic sieve set over a bowl.
• Press the pulp through the sieve; discard seeds.
• Drain the mangoes.
• Rinse the mango chunks in a plastic sieve under cold running water until all the salt is washed off.
• Drain well.
• Put the sieved tamarind pulp and mango flesh into a preserving pan.
• Peel and finely chop the ginger.
• Halve the chillies lengthwise; remove and discard the seeds.
• Chop the chillies with a small knife.
• Stir the ginger, chillies, vinegar, sugar, raisins and allspice into the mango and tamarind mixture.
• Bring to a boil, stirring.
• Simmer over a medium heat, stirring, for 30 minutes, or until the mangoes are tender and the chutney has reduced and thickened.
• Test by pulling the back of the spoon across the bottom of the pan.
• There should be no runny vinegar visible.
• Spoon the chutney into warmed sterilized jars, to within 3 mm of the tops.
• Stir, if necessary, to remove any air pockets.
• Seal the jars and label.
• The chutney is now ready to use.

Steps:

• Place all ingredients in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer until thick, about 25 minutes, stirring often to keep from sticking. Let cool, and store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Peel mangoes and cut into 1/2-inch cubes. In a small bowl toss mangoes with vinegar, sugar, salt, and raisins.
• Make seasoning paste:
• Cut gingerroot into 4 pieces. For a milder chutney, wearing rubber gloves, remove seeds and veins from Thai chilies or jalapeño. To a food processor with motor running add gingerroot, chilies, and remaining seasoning paste ingredients, 1 at a time through feed tube, and purée to a paste.
• Heat a 4-quart heavy kettle over moderately low heat until hot. Cook seasoning paste, cinnamon stick, and star anise in oil, stirring frequently, 10 minutes, or until very fragrant. Stir in mango mixture and simmer, covered, over low heat, stirring occasionally, until mangoes are tender, about 30 minutes. Discard cinnamon stick and star anise and cool chutney completely. Chutney keeps, covered and chilled, about 1 month.

Steps:

• 1. Combine apples, mangoes, red pepper, sugar, onion, raisins, vinegar, and gingerroot in a large stainless steel or enamel saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce heat, and boil gently, uncovered, for 20 minutes or until fruit is tender and mixture is thickened, stirring occasionally. Add lemon juice, curry powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt; boil gently for 5 minutes.
• 2. Remove hot jars from canner and ladle chutney into jars to within 1/2 inch (1 cm) of rim (head space). Process 10 minutes for half-pint (250 mL) jars and 15 minutes for pint (500 mL) jars as directed for Longer Time Processing Procedure.
