Many individuals think that pineapple chutney is very exotic, when in reality, all you need to do is gather your ingredients and cook them and and blitz them in some circumstances.
Maybe the “hardest part” for most is the gathering part, but after that, it is just adding ingredients to a large pan and watching them soften and infuse with one another and if required, grinding them into a delectable relish.
