Mint, coriander & mango chutney
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.

Mint leaves for this coriander and mango chutney recipe? Very good.
Pleaee may i ask. Does the mango act as a preserve. As i know someone who would love this in their chritmas hamper of home made chutneys.
Thank you…
Hi Amanda
To be honest I don’t think so. It should keep for a few days though.
Thanks,

Hi Dan
Just wanted to say I bought your new book recently & have spent 2 weeks trying everything & it’s all soooo good!!
I’ve spent years trying to perfect indian cuisine to the way I like it, just like from the restaurants & it’s been a bit of an uphill struggle but now, because of your excellent book & recipes it’s all coming together!!
– Can’t tell you how pleased I am – my fiends are really pleased too & they say it’s better than most takeaways they’ve had….just going home now to do some chicken tikka……lovely!
Well done you!
All the very best, Sarah

Hi Dan, just to let you know. I tweaked the recipe. So I used mint sauce and mango chutney. Guess what it now goes into my Christmas hampers. 💕
Great to hear, thanks very much
