Papaya Chutney
Makes 3 Cups
This chutney is an all-purpose condiment, delicious with roast lamb, grilled chicken, or sautéed pork chops. It offers a sensational and unexpected flavor combination—try it on a cheese plate or smear it on a sandwich with roast meat. Also, given its many uses and beautiful orange color, it makes a great gift.
