Ingredients

Scale

Produce

2 pounds Mango
1 1/4 cup Onion, diced
2 tablespoons Fresh Ginger, grated
1/2 cup Red Bell Pepper, diced

Pantry

1 1/2 tablespoon Vegetable Oil
1/2 teaspoon Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
1/2 cup Pineapple Juice
1/4 cup Apple Cider Vinegar
1/4 cup Brown Sugar
2 1/4 teaspoons Sweet Curry Powder
To taste Kosher Salt
To taste Ground White Pepper
1/4 cup Golden Raisins
1/4 cup Macadamia Nuts

Instructions

Prepare Nuts and Produce: Toast the macadamia nuts in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden and fragrant, then roughly chop them. Dice the onions and red bell pepper, grate the fresh ginger, and peel the mangoes to prepare for cooking.
Slice the Mangoes: Using a sharp knife, slice each mango vertically on either side of the pit to get two large disc-shaped slices. Score the mango flesh in a diamond pattern, then invert the skin side out to expose the flesh, and slice the mango flesh away from the skin.
Sauté Aromatics and Vegetables: Heat vegetable oil and crushed red pepper flakes in a sauté pan over medium heat. Add the diced onions and sweat until soft and translucent. Then add the grated ginger and diced red bell pepper, sautéing for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add the mango slices and cook for another minute to meld the flavors.
Add Liquids and Simmer: In a small bowl, whisk together pineapple juice, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, and sweet curry powder. Pour this mixture into the pan with the sautéed ingredients. Stir well to combine and bring the mixture to a low simmer. Allow it to reduce gently for 30 minutes while stirring frequently to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
Season and Add Final Ingredients: Taste and season the chutney with kosher salt and ground white pepper as desired. Stir in the golden raisins and toasted macadamia nuts. Heat through briefly and remove from heat. The chutney is now ready to serve and enjoy.

Notes

This chutney pairs beautifully with grilled chicken, fish, or as a topping for cheese boards.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
For a smoother consistency, pulse the chutney slightly in a food processor after cooking.
Adjust crushed red pepper flakes for more or less heat according to preference.
