Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups chopped ripe mango (approximately 2 medium mangoes)
- 1 cup chopped fresh pineapple (about 1 small pineapple)
- 1 cup chopped tart apple (around 1 medium apple)
- 1 cup finely chopped onion (about 1 medium onion)
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional for a spicy kick)
Instructions
- Place the chopped mango, pineapple, apple, and onion into a sizable pot.
- Pour in the brown sugar and apple cider vinegar, then add the grated ginger, cinnamon, cloves, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes if desired.
- Mix everything thoroughly to ensure an even distribution of flavors.
- Heat the pot over medium-high heat until the mixture reaches a rolling boil.
- Once boiling, lower the heat to a gentle simmer.
- Allow it to cook uncovered for about 30 to 40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens and the fruits become tender.
- After cooking, take the pot off the heat and let the relish cool down to room temperature.
- Once cooled, carefully spoon the relish into clean, sterilized jars and seal them tightly.
- For the best flavor, refrigerate the jars for at least 24 hours before enjoying.
Notes
- To enhance the heat, feel free to add more red pepper flakes or include a chopped jalapeño during the cooking process.
- For a unique twist, swap out the mango for diced peaches or apricots to create a different flavor experience.
