ABOUT Bengali Raw Mango Chutney with Panch Phoron RECIPE

Raw Mango Chutney is prepared in many ways. I am sharing this simple yet irresistible heirloom recipe from my mom. Panch Phoron is a blend of whole spices like cumin seeds, fennel seeds, nigella seeds,mustard seeds and fenugreek seeds in equal portions. Some bengalis like me use fenugreek seeds in less portion because of its bitter taste. The raw mango chutney is served at the end of a typical bengali meal. It can be served as a side dish or as sweet.
