Pears Chutney | Gayathiri's Cookbook

Lots of pears from my backyard tree. We shared it with our community, but there is still abundance!!! We thank mother nature for blessings. We tried to innovate different dishes using them!!
We made curries, sweets, pickles and here is our recipe for chutney.

This chutney goes well with Idly and dosa varieties. ( Netiher too sweet nor very spicy).

I suggest you give it a try.
