Raw mango mint chutney (traditionally “aam pudina chutney”) is a tasty tangy herby condiment served with Indian meals or as a sandwich spread for breakfast. This chutney combines the cooling properties of raw mango (kaccha aam) and mint leaves (pudina), with some coriander leaves (dhania) thrown in. When summer approaches and raw seasonal mangoes abound, this chutney is a lovely treat.
