Chirimoya Chutney?



This is a chirimoya which my dear friends Karmen and Jorge shared with me the other night after after a fantastic meal round theirs. The chirimoyas were sent from their dear friend Pepillo's orchards in Motril, Spain - where they are from. It is also known as the custard apple and when you taste it it is easy why as it tastes like a delicious pudding wrapped in a slightly alien packaging. Spooning out flesh straight from the fruit and it's almost an every-fruit as there are nuances of apple, pear, banana, plantain, mango, papaya going on. Of course my mind started to think of Chirimoya Chutney and how out of this world that would taste. Apparently they can occasionally be found in London but are particularly plentiful in Motril. I'm really grateful to them for their friendship as well as sharing this rare treat with me!


and remember...
it's not your chutney...
it's smy chutney
