Mango Chutney Glazed Fish

Manami's Note:

They have told me that this is very good! I don't like or eat mangoes and I don't love fish, so this a combination of recipes and experiments from the kitchen and the whole kitchen staff and other staff members, that are my guinea pigs! Didn't allow for cooking time for chutney since that should be made ahead of time.

I only used the chutney part of this recipe and served it alongside my own grilled mahi mahi. It was fabulous. It is easy to do, if you don't mind chopping vegetables. For those who haven't mastered how to dice a mango, it might be messy. (My secret is to cut the mango with the skin into four slices around the seed, and then dice it on the peel then scrape the diced fruit off the peel). It was so easy after the chopping, just simmer and cool. Looks colorful and fancy too, I may try and take a picture.. I did add a little salt.
