To celebrate the 4th birthday of Cookpad,I was looking for an interesting recipe to cook with fruits, and Pears or Naspati seemed perfect to make a tangy sweet and spicy chutney. The result was delicious! This preserve can be stored for a week in fridge and make perfect spread or side dish for sandwiches, Parathas and rice. Do try it and enjoy.
