Mango Chutney Directions

Step 1. Cut up the dried fruit and the mango.  Add all dried fruit and ingredients to a medium sauce pan over medium heat.

Step 2. Use fresh lemon juice to add some tartness to the mango chutney.  You can also substitute concentrated lemon juice instead, just use 2 tablespoon equivalent juice.

Step 3. Cover pan and bring chutney to boil for 15 minutes.  Make sure you stir occasionally to prevent the chutney from sticking to the bottom of the pan.  Simmer for for another 15 minutes on low.

Step 4. Serve chutney warm or at room temperature.  Refrigerate and store chutney in clean canning jars with tight fitting lids.  To use as party favors, add a custom label and decorate with raffia or pretty ribbon.
