Very easy, tasty traditional chutney. The blend of spices is very nice - this is a spicy but not hot mango chutney. Will definitely make again. Thanks.

I've never had chutney before, but I'll have be lots from now on! I made this for a recipe that uses it as an ingredient (and I couldn't find it at the grocery store). The blend of flavors is just wonderful! Thanks for a great recipe!

I can see why your Mom's Mango Chutney is famous. I made this to go with Derf's Jamaican Pork Tenderloin and it absolutely made the dish. I used some really plump golden raisins. I'll be using this many times. Thank you for posting and also thank your mom for me.
