Notes
Notes
For this recipe, raw cooking mango works the best. These mangoes are now available year around in most Indian grocery stores. You may find that sometimes the mangoes have already started ripening and the color is not white when you slice inside, but it will still work. You can also use mangoes that are not ripe enough and too sour to eat for this recipe. If you think that the mango still needs some sourness, add in mango powder.

I never even knew what chutney was, never tried it before. I made this last night to go with your paneer makhani and my family were all thrilled! I bought regular eating mangoes and they worked just fine. It was such a nice, sweet side dish to go with dinner.
