Hot Lime And Mango Chutney Recipes

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 a 4-inch square of cheesecloth. Place cloves and peppercorns in center, and form a bundle; secure with kitchen twine. Place bundle in a low-sided 6-quart saucepan. Add vinegar, red onion, red-pepper flakes, salt, and sugar. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Stir in ginger, lime zest and juice, and mangoes. Continue to simmer over medium until mangoes begin to soften and liquid has thickened, about 40 minutes. Remove from heat. Transfer to a large bowl set over an ice-water bath to cool; refrigerate in an airtight container up to 1 month.

Steps:

• Put the limes in a saucepan and cover with water. Place a small heatproof plate on top of the fruit to keep them submerged and then bring to a boil over a medium heat and simmer for 20-30 mins until the limes are tender. Scoop out the limes, pat them dry with kitchen paper, and discard the cooking water.
• Once the limes are cool enough to handle, chop them (peel and pith included) into 3cm chunks and tip everything, including any juice, into a mixing bowl. Stir in the chopped garlic, chilli powder, turmeric and salt, and leave to one side for 1 hour.
• Heat a sturdy and dry frying pan over a medium-low heat, and add the mustard seeds, fenugreek, cumin and star anise, Stir and toast the spices for about 40 seconds until aromatic. Tip them into a mortar, add 1 teaspoon of sugar and pound to a powder with a pestle - you can also use an electric spice grinder for this, too.
• Add this ground spice mix to the limes, stir well, spoon everything into a sterilised jar and then seal. Leave the pickle in a warm place or on a sunny window ledge for 2-3 days so that flavours mature. Stir the limes once a day with a metal spoon to ensure they are evenly coated in the spice mix.
• Heat the oil in a wok or karahi over a medium-high heat and fry the ginger and green chillies for 2-3 mins, until the ginger starts to turn golden. Add the vinegar and sugar and simmer over a medium-low heat until the sugar has dissolved, then boil for 2 mins.
• Turn the heat off and add the steeped limes and masala. Leave on one side to cool and then spoon the pickle back into the same jar. Using a metal spoon, push the limes down into the jar so that they are covered by the spicy oil - you might need to add a little extra oil. Seal the jar and leave the pickle for 3-4 days before tasting. It will keep for 3 months at room temperature.

Steps:

• Cut 10 ripened yellowed limes into eight wedges each. Place in large glass bowl, sprinkle with 2 tablespoons cooking salt and stir well, cover with plastic wrap or lid and leave for 48 hours in cool dark place, stirring occasionally.
• Drain, rinse well and mix with raisins and sultanas. Process in batches in food processor until coarsely chopped.
• Heat 3 tablespoons peanut oil in large heavy based pan, add cumin, coriander, mustard seeds, chilli powder, black pepper, garlic and ginger (don't overcook ginger or it will become bitter.).
• Cook over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, or until very aromatic.
• Add the lime mixture, vinegar and soft brown sugar. Bring to the boil, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
• Reduce the heat and simmer for 1½ hours, stirring occasionally. Pour into warm, sterilized jars and seal.
• Refrigerate after opening. Makes about 2½ cups (600ml).

Steps:

• Peel the mangoes and chop the flesh into blueberry-sized pieces. Pour the vinegar and sugar into a large pan and simmer gently, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Increase the heat and bubble for 8-10 mins until reduced a little. Meanwhile, toast the cumin, coriander and cardamom in a dry pan until aromatic.
• Tip the spices into a pestle and mortar and gently crush them, leaving the seeds with some texture. Remove the cardamom pods, leaving the seeds in the spice mix, and add to the vinegar mix along with the mangoes, the other ingredients and 2 tsp salt. Bubble over a medium heat for 1 hr 15 mins - 1 hr 35 mins, until thick and syrupy. Leave to sit for 10 mins.
• Transfer the chutney into 2-3 sterilised jars while still hot. Seal the jars and leave to cool, then add labels. Store in a cool place for up to 2 years - the chutney will be best eaten after a few months, when the flavours have melded and mellowed.

Steps:

• 1. Combine apples, mangoes, red pepper, sugar, onion, raisins, vinegar, and gingerroot in a large stainless steel or enamel saucepan.
