I do not quiet think of chutneys until I get to spend some time with my mom. She has a treasure of chutney recipes and I am always surprised to see the ease with which she makes them. Just a little bit of chutney in your plate, and it takes the meal to a completely different level.
My friend Yuko, has been generously delivering me all kinds of vegetables from her organic veggie garden. When I mentioned to her about my mom’s green tomato chutney, she promptly dropped off some fresh green tomatoes.

My boys who are not much into chutneys thought this was a yummier version of salsa verde. They scooped up the chutney with chips!

- Scoop with tortilla chips

I do not have an instant pot. How to I adapt this recipe? Thank you.
Hi Francine, This recipe can be easily adapted as a stove top recipe. Simply dice the tomatoes into small cubes so they cook in 5 to 10 minutes. Simply cook covered after adding tomatoes and add 1/4 to 1/2 cup of water as needed while stirring it a couple of times. Let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you!
This is absolutely delicious! Love the flavors–this is a go-to. Is there any way to can or keep this longer than green tomato season?
Hi Sara, although I have not tried canning this, I feel if you store in dry, air tight glass jars this chutney should last for a long time in the refrigerator. I am glad you enjoyed the flavors.
