Creation Method

Step 1

Add all the ingredients except the mangoes into a large preserving pan, put the lid on as you want to keep the steam in the boiler for the liquid at this stage. Bring to the boil and then reduce to a simmer for approximately 20 minutes to half an hour to soften the apples etc. Stir occasionally to make sure all the sugar has dissolved.

Step 2

Add 2 kg only of the ripe chopped mangoes and simmer on low heat with the lid off from now on as you need some of the liquid to evaporate to help the chutney get thicker, stirring approximately every 5 minutes to prevent it from catching at the bottom of the boiler, until thickened. This should take about a further 1 hour perhaps a little longer depending on the type of stove you are using. You have to cook it slowly, so be patient and stir regularly otherwise it will stick as the chutney has a high sugar content with all the fruits and sugars.

Step 3

Add the last ½ kg of just ripe Bowen or KP mangoes and the 6 sliced long red chillies and cook for a further 30 minutes on low heat, stirring regularly to prevent sticking.

Step 4

Make sure the last of the mangoes added are fully cooked before bottling, otherwise you may experience fermentation and growth on top of the chutney when opening a jar later. Bottle immediately and put tops on the jars while the chutney is still hot, making sure that some of the long chillies and still yellow mango cubes show on the outside of the jar for decorative presentation.
