I had to do a bit of switching when making this recipe, in that I used thawed frozen mango & some canned pears instead of fresh fruit, & then I added the pears just before the chutney was done! A little unorthodox, I know, but the chutney turned out very nicely, & we are still enjoying it! I've added the recipe to a small pile of those I want to make again this coming summer when I can use fresh fruits! Thanks for a great keeper recipe!

This was very good but I think I actually would like less cider vinegar or more sugar. I also used dehydrated Michigan cherries instead of the raisins. Made for Summer Photo Tag 2009.
