Ingredients:

5 large mangoes
2 cups white vinegar
4 cups sugar
1 and 1/2 cups sultanas
1 level tablespoon salt
1 level teaspoon ground ginger
1 level teaspoon allspice or mixed spice
1/4 level teaspoon cayenne pepper
6 peppercorns
6 cloves
6 large cloves garlic, finely chopped

Method:

Dice the mango. Boil the mango cubes and sultanas in the vinegar for 15 minutes.

Add sugar, boil 15 minutes

Add remainder of ingredients and boil until thick. This will take about 40 minutes boiling at a reasonably rapid rate. You need to be vigilant and stir the chutney every few minutes or it will stick to the bottom of the pan.

Carefully pour into hot sterilized jars. Seal whilst hot. Makes 4 - 5 average size jars.

Well i am going to try this variation. It sounds amazing. I love it that more sugar can be added. Mega stores bought chutney are best but very expensive where i live so last summer, i tried making my own. The recipe i used called for stretch the mangoes by adding black berries. Unfortunately, it was too early in the season for good ripe black berries.

Even my husband likes this recipe and generally he can’t stand chutneys, pickles or vinegary sauces of any type. Here in the south - west of Australia mangoes are sooo expensive. Such a pity as I love them!
