Step-by-Step Instructions

1. 1.Prepare the Mangoes

   Take unripe or semi-ripe mangoes. Peel the skin off the mangoes using a peeler.

2. 2.Grate the Mangoes

   Grate the peeled mangoes using a grater into a large mixing bowl.

3. 3.Add Spices and Sugar

   To the grated mangoes, add salt, red chilli powder, turmeric powder, and a generous amount of sugar.

4. 4.Mix Thoroughly

   Mix all the ingredients well with a spoon until everything is thoroughly combined and the sugar starts to dissolve slightly.

5. 5.Incorporate Vinegar and Black Salt

   Add vinegar and black salt to the mango mixture. Continue to mix until these new ingredients are fully incorporated.

6. 6.Transfer to Jar

   Carefully pour the prepared mango chutney mixture into a clean, dry glass jar.

7. 7.Cure in the Sun

   Cover the mouth of the jar with a clean cloth and secure it with a rubber band. Place the jar in direct sunlight to cure for at least one week. This process allows the sugar to fully dissolve and the flavors to meld, thickening the chutney.

8. 8.Store and Serve

   After curing, remove the cloth, seal the jar with its lid, and store the chutney. Serve this sweet and spicy mango chutney as a side with paratha or other Indian meals.
