Fruits are sweets, loaded with antioxidants, and taste delicious. They can be used to make lip-smacking chutneys and pair with Indian meals and snacks. Here are a few varieties you must try.

Orange Chutney

This is a unique recipe because you will need to blend boiled orange peels with jaggery, tamarind pulp, chillies, and mustard seeds. You can serve it as a dip too.

Plum Chutney

For a delicious spread on toast, make plum chutney. The fruit is cooked with sugar and spices until it is mushy. The mixture is blended but ensures the texture is chunky.

Apple Chutney

Diced apples are cooked in a solution of vinegar, sugar, and spices until they are soft. Grind the ingredients into a smooth blend and enjoy with crackers.

Papaya Chutney

Grate a papaya and cook it with mustard seeds, curry leaves, green chillies, and turmeric. You can add pepper and red chilli powder. Blend and enjoy with parathas.

Mango Chutney

In a few months, Indian markets will be flooded with mangoes. Cook the pulp with vinegar, sugar, cumin, salt, ginger, and red chilli powder. Serve it with fries and pakoras.

Guava Chutney

Only a few weeks left to get your hands on ripe guava. Blend it with lemon juice, ginger, green chillies, coriander, and salt. Enjoy it with nachos and other crunchy snacks.

Cranberry Chutney

Simmer the washed cranberries in a solution of sugar, orange juice, cinnamon, and ginger. Blend the ingredients into a smooth paste and enjoy it with toast.
