Green Mango Chutney is an authentic bengali chutney and is a favourite among them. This is a traditional recipe of raw mango chutney and is straight from my grandmother’s kitchen. In this recipe, sugar is being substituted with jaggery which adds to its health quotient. Roasted fennel imparts a nice flavour and chironji lends a nutty crunch to this tangy chutney.
