Mango and Beetroot Chutney
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 teaspoons curry powder
1 teaspoon powdered or fresh ginger grated on a fine grater
1 small chopped onion
1 large mango, cut into small cubes
1 apple cut into small cubes
1 beetroot grated on a coarse grater
50g apple vinegar
1/2 teaspoon Himalayan salt
1 small chilli or 1/2 tsp powder (optional)
Water (as needed)
25g maple or agave syrup
In a small saucepan add the vegetable oil and sauté the curry, ginger and onion.
After the aromas of the spices come out and the onion caramelizes, add the mango, apple and beetroot.
Then add the vinegar and salt.
First, boil over high heat and mix well.
Then, lower the heat, cover the pot and let the mango soften for about 15 minutes. Occasionally you should stir the mixture to prevent the fruit from sticking to the pot. Add half a cup of water to prevent the fruit from sticking.
After the mixture thickens and most of the liquids evaporate, add the maple syrup and chili (optional). Boil for another minute.
Serve the chutney as is or mix with a hand blender to a rough consistency.
