Mango Chutney Campfire Cheese Toasties Recipes

MANGO CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Peel the mangoes and chop the flesh into blueberry-sized pieces. Pour the vinegar and sugar into a large pan and simmer gently, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Increase the heat and bubble for 8-10 mins until reduced a little. Meanwhile, toast the cumin, coriander and cardamom in a dry pan until aromatic.
• Tip the spices into a pestle and mortar and gently crush them, leaving the seeds with some texture. Remove the cardamom pods, leaving the seeds in the spice mix, and add to the vinegar mix along with the mangoes, the other ingredients and 2 tsp salt. Bubble over a medium heat for 1 hr 15 mins - 1 hr 35 mins, until thick and syrupy. Leave to sit for 10 mins.
• Transfer the chutney into 2-3 sterilised jars while still hot. Seal the jars and leave to cool, then add labels. Store in a cool place for up to 2 years - the chutney will be best eaten after a few months, when the flavours have melded and mellowed.

MANGO CHUTNEY

Steps:

• In a large saucepan combine vinegar, white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, ground ginger, allspice, cloves, nutmeg, chile peppers and salt. Bring to a boil; boil for 1/2 hour.
• Stir in onions, garlic, golden raisins, raisins and ginger and boil for another 1/2 hour.
• Stir in mangos (and almonds if using), reduce heat to low and simmer for 1/2 hour. Pour mixture into sterilized jars, to 1/2 inch below lid level, and seal.

SWEET MANGO CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Heat the ghee in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and ginger and cook for 1 minute. Add the mango, raisins, sugar, tamarind paste, and curry powder. Season with salt and pepper, reduce the heat to low, and cook until everything is soft and the flavors have blended, about 30 minutes. Put the chutney into a bowl and allow it to cool before serving.
• Put the butter in a heavy saucepan over medium-low heat. Melt the butter slowly and make sure it does not sizzle or brown. Increase the heat and bring the butter to a boil. When the surface is covered with foam, stir gently and reduce the heat to the lowest possible setting. Gently simmer, uncovered, and undisturbed for 45 minutes, until the milk solids in the bottom of the pan have turned golden brown and the butter on top is transparent. Strain the ghee through a sieve lined with several layers of cheesecloth. The ghee should be perfectly clear and smell nutty; pour into a glass jar and seal tightly.
• Toast the coriander, cumin, cardamom, peppercorns, fennel, mustard, cloves, and the chiles in a small dry skillet over medium-low heat just until they smell fragrant, about 2 minutes. In a clean coffee grinder or spice mill, grind the toasted spices together to a fine powder. Add the turmeric and give it another quick buzz to combine. Use the curry powder immediately, or store in a sealed jar for up to 1 month.

MANGO CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Place all ingredients in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer until thick, about 25 minutes, stirring often to keep from sticking. Let cool, and store in an airtight container.

MANGO CHUTNEY & CHEESE NAAN TOASTIE

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix the cheeses, spring onion, chilli, cumin seeds and coriander.
• Cut the naan in half down the centre. Spread one half with the chutney, top with the cheese mixture, then cover with the other half. Melt the butter in a frying pan over a medium heat until just beginning to foam. Add the naan sandwich and use something heavy like a saucepan to press it down. Fry on one side for 4-5 mins or until golden brown, then turn over and repeat. Both sides should be crisp, with the cheese gooey. Cut in half and serve with extra chutney.

CURRIED SWEDE SOUP & MANGO CHUTNEY CHEESE TOASTIES

Steps:

• Heat the oil and butter in a large saucepan or flameproof casserole dish over a medium heat, and fry the onion, celery and a large pinch of salt for 10 mins until the veg is soft and starting to caramelise. Stir in the ginger and garlic and cook for 1 min more. Add the cumin, ground coriander, turmeric and curry powder. Fry for 1 min more. Stir in the swede and stock. Bring to a simmer. Cover and simmer for 1 hr 15 mins more until the swede is soft. Season. Blitz using a hand blender until smooth. Stir in the cream.
• For the toasties, mix the cheddar with the spring onions, nigella seeds and coriander. Butter one side of each bread slice. Divide the cheese mix between two slices on the unbuttered side, add the chutney, and sandwich with the other slices, butter-side-out. Heat a medium pan over a medium-low heat, add the sandwiches, and weigh them down with another pan. Fry on each side for 4 mins until golden and the cheese has melted. Cut in half. Serve the soup in bowls topped with some yogurt and chilli flakes, with the cheese on toast on the side.
