Raw Mango & Onion Chutney

Raw Mango Onion Chutney

I am almost partial towards raw mango and it is my favourite go-to ingredient for cooking up quick, chutneys - probably because it is hardly seasonal here in Bangalore and available at all local vegetable shops in different varieties and in plenty! Usually in Maharashtra, several varieties of raw mango chutneys are made in summers. Last evening I found a big, juicy 'Totapuri' variety of raw mango and my mind instantly traveled to the many summer vacations spent relishing raw and ripe mango-based dishes back home! Here's a quick chutney, a cheer to the good 'ol days!
