The fruit jams and preserves are quite common in the West but in India most of the chutneys are made from herbs, spices and vegetables apart from the mango chutney and coconut chutney.

I guess it could be that the fruits found in West lend themselves well to preservation as jams but tropical fruits such as melons, cantaloupes, bananas not so much. Or it could be that that breakfast in India tends to be savoury whereas in West it tends to be more sweet; toast with butter and jam is fairly common breakfast meal.

However, there are few sweet Indian chutneys made from fruits: mango chutney being the most common one and one of my absolute favourites!

But there is another less well-know chutney: grape chutney. If you haven’t tried it, you must try it! I insist!!

This recipe for making grape chutney is yumlicious and super-easy to make.

    1. I normally eat it within couple of days. As grapes are available more or less through out the year, I tend to make it fresh
