Easy Mango Chutney

[hpmarocsvp]

You're such a nice person! I'm happy when I watch your videos!

[bujjisari]

This just goes on to demonstrate how some people just take every thing so literally without trying to grasp the big picture. I agree with Titli.... Driking alcohol makes people do crazy things and is not good for health, hence considered haram. The big picture behind it is to stop people from acting unreasonably and I do not see ppl doing so by eating mango chutney.

[TitliNihaan]

@bujjisari Dangerous stuff, mango chutney... ;-)

By the way, what is Asefetida ot HING?? Pleas tell me, I have to know what that is , what its taste like and what if i dont have it?? Why do you use it in some food, please tell me all about it!

Thank you!!

[TitliNihaan]

@chka2610 Hing is the dried oooze from the roots of certain plants.  When uncooked it STINKS, but cooking gives it a subtle flavour which complememts the flavours in Indian cooking

[MrAluminox]

All vinegars (=acetic acid) come from alcohol which is transformed by specialized bacteria.

The recipe is absolutely delicious. Many thanks Titli and I'm going to discover more recipes.

[shamscoll]

please check on islamictimes.co.uk for more details on the hadiths concerning wine vinegar.

[TitliNihaan]

@shamscoll ...which ignores the main hadith explicitly concerning vinegar and shows a lack of understanding of food production and labeling. The point about alcohol is not that alcohol itself is an evil substance, but the intoxication from drinking it IS. The levels of alcohol in any vinegar are tiny. If one were to follow the line of thinking on that website one would not eat "ripe" fruit as some fermentation has already started and the fruit will contain tiny amounts of alcohol!

@TitliNihaan white wine vinegar has no harm by taking in a little vinegar will do nothing

[shamscoll]

Some Islamic scholars do not consider a food product Halaal even if it is made with all Halaal ingredients but food flavour in which ethyl alcohol has been used as a solvent. Therefore, this means that some part of Haraam wine is present in white wine vinegar. Besides the above, the processing of wine to wine vinegar is not 100%. Some minute amount of wine is also left over in wine vinegar. continue.......

[TitliNihaan]

@shamscoll There is a hadith that the Prophet himself (pbuh) said "The best of condiments is vinegar". In Arabia at that time all vinegar would have been made from wine. Allah swt knows best.

[shamscoll]

you say you are a muslim and in some of your dish its written halaal but how come you are using white wine vinegar in your chutney as wine is HARAAM in islam.White wine has wine in it.

[TitliNihaan]

@shamscoll The vinegar is vinegar and does not have alcohol in it. The vinegar is derived from white wine. I am sure you are familiar of the principle of transformation in which haram things may become halal and vice versa. Islam permits any type of vinegar to be used as a condiment or preservative.

You are very quick..........I like you

[abbyovitsky]

i made it one time in Riverside...i just caught asalaam aleckum, missed that the first time (i am hearing impaired)

in any event, 2 years later, i wanted you to know i am using similar spice combinations and continuing to use 100% organic Circle Farms mangos, ginger combining with cayenne pepper to make similar flavors maybe Indian/SE Asian or Jamaican in origin not sure, possibly all W African in origin? in any event, it is Ayurvedic and the heat has a balancing effect on us...w/chicken.

[agnesdeque]

Titli tu dis qu'on peut accompagner du fromage avec ce chutney.Quels genre de fromage?

[TitliNihaan]

@agnesdeque Cantal, Tomme de Savoie, Gruyere, Emmental, Beaufort...

[agnesdeque]

@TitliNihaan Surtout des pâtes dures.Le camembert ou le roquefort,ça le fait pas?

[TitliNihaan]

@agnesdeque Les pates dures...

[agnesdeque]

@TitliNihaan Je suppose qu'en vraie Britannique,dès que ça coule un peu...

[TitliNihaan]

@agnesdeque ;-)

[mkshriva]

Hi can I use normal distilled vinegar which we use in chinese dishes or it has to be specific with white vine vinegar??

Thanks a lot for the wonderful recipe.

[TitliNihaan]

@mkshriva Distilled vinegar should be fine.

[boxdown]

شكرا

thanks sister :)

[TheKraustin]

Thank you. I very much enjoyed this recipe, but what would you eat with this particular mango chutney?

[TitliNihaan]

Pappadoms, curries, and even goes well with cheese on toast!

[virusvial]

lol idk that you can eat it with pappadoms can't you eat it with rice?

[TitliNihaan]

You can eat it with anything! Put it on your Shredded Wheat if you like!

[abbyovitsky]

very professional simple and small quantity for small family. but whole seeds?!

[TitliNihaan]

Sure! Trust me... I'm a Doctor. And I am a small family ;-)

[abbyovitsky]

we're two people in california. i made it without the seeds and used 5 mangos, it's way more than we're likely to consume. i put in the traditional cayanne and it is spicy, next time i will try the indian spices you suggest, is it Auyervedic? i watched three videos just so i would not feel lonely peeling mangos. yours was by far the most professional and i could understand every word (a feat for me!)

[TitliNihaan]

Thanks for your kind feedback. I don't think the recipe is Auyervedic, although things like ginger are sometimes used in Ayurvedic remedies in conjunction with pepper. The recipe is quite "hot" and to make it more mild you may want to reduce the cloves and/or peppercorns. It's easy to make a mild dish spicy, but a spicy dish is a spicy dish!
