Easy Mango Chutney
• Use slightly underripe mangoes for a tangier chutney or ripe mangoes for a sweeter version. • Adjust vinegar and sugar based on how sweet or sharp your mangoes are. • Blending is optional if you prefer a smoother, jam-like texture. • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week. • This chutney pairs well with grain bowls, roasted vegetables, tofu, or sandwiches. Health Benefits: Mangoes provide vitamin C, vitamin A precursors, and antioxidants that support immune and skin health. Ginger and garlic contribute anti-inflammatory compounds that may support digestion and cardiovascular health. Using vinegar helps balance blood sugar response and enhances flavor without excess added fat. This condiment is a flavorful way to increase fruit-based phytonutrients in savory meals.
