Kacche Aam Ki Chutney hutney

The season of mangoes is here, and no one can stop talking about chutney. Whenever summer arrives, people love preparing mango chutney. Chutney is a type of flavorful dip that can be enjoyed with bharwan paratha, aloo puri, kebabs, or tikki.

Mango chutney has a unique and authentic taste. Its combination with mint is especially refreshing. Although coriander leaves can also be added, mint is more commonly available during summers. Mint provides a cooling effect, which is why it is widely used in mango chutney. During fasting, you can use rock salt instead of regular salt.

Finely grind all the ingredients and freeze the chutney in small cubes. Whenever you feel like having it, simply take out a cube and enjoy.

I don’t usually like chutney or pickles much, but I enjoy making them for my family. As soon as raw mangoes are available in the season, I prepare a large batch of chutney and store it in the refrigerator. The combination of mango and mint is amazing, and sometimes I also add garlic for extra flavor.

Before making the chutney, I clean and wash all the ingredients properly and keep them in the fridge. Then, I grind them using pulse mode so that the color remains fresh and vibrant. I also prefer using crushed ice instead of water.
