Chutney

[annedonnelly]

Can anyone suggest a chutney to go with curries? I'm a bit fed up with mango chutney and fancy a change. I did find some in Aldi - papaya and orange I think - a few weeks ago and I liked that, but they don't have it now.

I don't like lime pickle and the supermarkets don't seem to have anything else. I can find loads of nice chutneys to go with cheese and meat but not the sort that I'd eat with a curry.

I'm not looking for recipes. I'm sure I could make my own but I'd end up with far too much. I just want to pop to the shops and buy a jar of something nice.

Brinjal pickle (Aubergine) is good.

Waitrose had a good selection lately

Have you tried local Indian shops/supermarkets

Go to your favourite curry house and ask the manager. He'll almost certainly be delighted to offer advice.

Eww coriander

Another + for coconut chutney. These are very popular in southern India.

Here's a selection according to the meal in question:

Thanks everyone. I'll probably take a look at Waitrose first. I'm not sure we've got any Indian supermarkets - lots of Chinese ones, but that's not quite the same...

Have you noticed that Scandanavian types really dislike fresh Coriander leaf?

I really dislike fresh coriander leaf. Was introduced to it in Cambodia. Fresh coriander and Parmesan cheese:

Coconut is the way to go. It's not curry but it's a recipe for a nice coconut chutney.

Weirdo.

The two together maybe a bit but on their own

Eww coriander

Eww chutney and eww curry!

Chutney is great (tomato chutney... ordinary, but yet special)
Parmesan cheese is great.
Fresh coriander is also great.
Just for the record.

I was going to say I'd have his coriander but seeing as you've expressed an interest, we could go 50-50. Let's not tell @vickster I've got a coriander coloured bike...

Edit: Oh, I started off this post to say I was a firm believer in Indian mixed pickle. Like lime pickle with other guess-the-crunch vegetables thrown in. This addition to the post has little relevance to chutney, so consider it an accompaniment.

Coriander hate is genetic. To most of us, coriander tastes like... A nice herb. But there's some gene that makes it taste like soap. You know it if that's you.

Can recommend waitrose home brand spicy mango chutney, quite different from Sharwood's.
