In most Indian households, a meal is quite not complete unless there’s a bit of chutney on the side. And there really is no limit to the number of ways chutneys are made in India, or a cap on the kind of ingredients one can use. What differentiates a chutney from a pickle is that chutneys are made fresh and are meant to be consumed within a day or two.
Chutneys are ideal as a dip with samosa, patties, momos, or even as a palate-cleanser at the end of a meal. A lot of chaats would also lose their glory if there was no chutney added to it. Take a look at some of the best brands of chutneys you can buy online.
