Pear Raisin Chutney is a fingerlickingly delish side for fritters, munchies. I love making it whenever I get a chance because it is fruity fresh, spicy and easy to make! So, here is how to make the best version of this chutney in 45 minutes.
What do you do when you have a basket full of pears lying on your counter, shouting to be used quickly! You make Pear Chutney.
When we think of chutneys we normally think tangy and spicy. But this fruit chutney is sweet and delectable. It is so versatile, you can pair it with crackers or cheese or use as a topping for your grilled meat or lick it just like that.
We even like to mix a little with our daily rice and lentil. This Chutney can be refrigerated for 3-4 weeks but needs to be stored in sterilized jars. Just put the jar in boiling water for 10 minutes to warm it up.
Along with pear, we also add raisins to this dip, however, you can also add cranberry, fig, apple as well to it if you really like their When it comes to tangy chutneys, there are many of them I’ve already tried.
All the ingredients in the recipe are unprocessed; I will be cooking and eating unprocessed food for the entire month of October. It sounds a little tough, but I’ll try my level best.
