Best Gingered Fig And Mango Chutney With A Bite Recipes

GINGER MANGO CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Pop the mango, while still in the container, into the freezer for at least 2 hours.
• While the mango is freezing, wash the mason jar and lid thoroughly.
• In a small saucepan, over medium-low heat, add ginger preserves and cayenne pepper. Once the preserves begin to boil, turn off the heat and pull saucepan off to the side. Stir in frozen mango and salt. When the chutney is at room temperature, pour it into the jar and cover with a lid. Place in refrigerator.
• Chutney will last up to 1 month in refrigerator.

FRESH FIG AND GINGER CHUTNEY FROM THE AUBERGE

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients in a large saucepan. Bring to the boil, reduce the heat, and simmer, covered, for 30 minutes.
• Uncover the pan and continue simmering for about an hour and a half, stirring often, until the chutney is reduced, thick and richly flavoured. If the chutney becomes too dry, add a splash of water. Taste and correct the seasoning, adding brown sugar, vinegar, or chilli flakes as needed. (Sometimes, depending on the water in the figs, this chutney can take over 2 hours to reduce.).
• Spoon into sterilised jars and seal. The chutney will keep for up to 8 or 9 months, unopened, in a cool, dark place. Once opened, refrigerate and use within 4 weeks.

GINGERED FIG AND MANGO CHUTNEY WITH A BITE

Steps:

• Grind the whole allspice, whole black pepper, and black cardamom seeds. In a large saucepan over high heat, combine all the ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until mixture has thickened to form thick syrup. Then simmer for 60 more minutes. Stirring often toward end of cooking to prevent burning.
• Optional: Save 2 cups of chopped fruits and pepper to add halfway through cooking for a chunkier chutney.
• Remove the cinnamon sticks and ladle into hot sterilized jars until 1/4 inch from the top.
• Seal with lids and set the jars in a pot of hot water bath for 20 minutes.
• Label and store in a cool dark place for 3 weeks at least for flavors to develop.
• Makes 8-9 1/2 pint jars.

MANGO CHUTNEY (BEST EVER!)

Steps:

• Heat the oil over medium-high in a medium stock pot. Saute the ginger, garlic and red chilies for a minute. Add the spices and saute for another minute. Add the diced mangoes, sugar, salt, and vinegar and stir to combine. Bring it to a rapid boil and reduce to medium-low. Steady simmer for 1 hour. Remove from heat and allow it to cool. If you prefer smaller chunks, use a potato masher to mash the mixture to the desired consistency.
• For storage, chutney will keep for a while because of the high acidity content. A conservative time frame would be up to 2 months in the fridge (in a sealed jar) or for several months in the freezer. Canning Instructions (for even longer shelf-life): Pour the hot mixture directly into sterilized jars and process in a water bath for 10 minutes. Let sit undisturbed for 24 hours, then store in a dark, cool place. Will keep for at least a year.This makes roughly 2 1/2 pints of mango chutney.

• Add the sugar, then stir to dissolve. Simmer for 20-30 mins, stirring occasionally, until the chutney is thickened. Pot into warm sterilised jars, seal and label. Will keep for 6 months.
