Hi friends, in my childhood I never tasted or even tried to
taste the shallots/onions, garlic and all…I hate the shallots, onion and garlic smells, I hesitate to touch the shallots... But now, I love both yes, I include

ingredients enough to make the yummy chutney. In our home its our favourite,
and I made the chutney first time by me…
