The word chutney comes from original Hindi word chatni which is a tangy and spicy paste or sauce that makes you smack you lips, makes your tongue and mouth come alive! The word chat or chaat mean lick and chatna means to lick. The original Indian chatni is a mix of uncooked fruit (raw mango/apple/other fruits), green chillies, herbs like coriander and mint, a few spices, lemon or vinegar or tamarind, sometimes sugar, all ground together to a paste. Other ingredients can also be added according to taste. In England, and the West, it is called Chutney and it generally means a spicy preserve/condiment, where fruits or vegetables have been cooked in vinegar, with spices and sugar, and then bottled.
