Author Notes

This chutney plays well with all the usual suspects (curries, cheese boards) and a few unlikely ones (peanut butter sandwiches, omelets, potatoes). I like fruity (not dry) Riesling, Moscato or Gewurtztraminer best, but use any white wine you like. Cumin seeds give more flavor if toasted.

What You'll Need
Ingredients
  • 2 pounds (5 1/2 cups) mango, best you can find, peeled & chopped
  • 1 pound (4 cups) cranberries, fresh or frozen
  • 1 pound (3 cups) pears, chopped
  • 7 1/3 ounces (1 cup packed) brown sugar
  • 1 pound (3 cups) fresh apricots, chopped (or half volume dried)
  • 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger chopped
  • 3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon cumin seeds, dry roasted in frying pan
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric, ground
  • 1 cup white wine (your choice; see headnote)
  • 1/2 cup onion (any type), chopped
Directions
  1. In a large pot, saute the chopped onion in oil until golden. Add chopped ginger & cook one minute more. Add wine, vinegar, sugar and spices. Simmer 5 minutes.
  2. Add chopped fruit and cranberries. Bring to a boil. Lower heat & simmer 8 minutes. Strain fruit & set it aside. Return the liquid to the pot.
  3. Simmer liquid about 15 minutes or until it forms a syrup (probably need to watch or stay close by during this period). Return fruit to pot and simmer 3 minutes. The chutney is now done.
  4. Let cool and ladle into sterilized jars. Store tightly covered 1-2 months refrigerated or up to a year in the freezer.
