I’m usually quite good and identifying flavours but with this mint, coriander & Mango Chutney I was stumped. Hasan from Hasan’s Restaurant in Leeds served it to me with a selection of tandoori dishes. I got the coriander and mint right but what was that other familiar ingredient?
The chutney was quite thick so I assumed yogurt even though it didn’t look or taste anything like yogurt. Silly guess I guess!
Hasan then told me it was mango chutney. Simple mango chutney that you can purchase off the shelf or if you’re so inclined make your own. This recipe is easy and worth the effort. It goes so well with tandoori dishes such as chicken tikka and lamb kebabs.
This is one you are going to need to experiment with. If the chutney is too thick for your liking, add more lime juice or smooth mango chutney. You really can’t go wrong as all of the flavours are good on their own. Just taste and adjust and you’ll soon have the perfect side dish for your favourite tandoori dishes and popadams.

Hi Amanda
To be honest I don't think so. It should keep for a few days though.
Thanks, Dan
