This chutney is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think it would be great for people who like sweeter chutneys.

This chutney is a great way to use up leftover tomatoes. It's also a great condiment for grilled meats and vegetables.

I found this chutney to be a bit too sweet for my taste. I would have preferred it if there was more of a balance between the sweetness and the acidity.

This chutney was a delightful burst of flavors! The sweetness of the tomatoes and the tanginess of the onions were perfectly balanced. I also loved the addition of the mustard seeds, which gave the chutney a nice crunch.
