This chutney is our favourite and is a great tasty accompaniment to cold cuts of meat such as chicken and beef and is also vert tasty with cheese and crackers especially Brie and Camembert. I compiled this recipe myself with experimenting with tamarillos.

This chutney is delicious, but it's a bit too spicy for my taste. Next time, I'll use less chili pepper.

This chutney is a great make-ahead condiment. I made a batch a few weeks ago and have been enjoying it ever since. It's the perfect addition to sandwiches, wraps, and salads.

I'm not a huge fan of tamarillos, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try. I'm glad I did! The chutney is surprisingly good. The sweetness of the dates balances out the tartness of the tamarillos perfectly.

This chutney is delicious! I love the combination of tamarillos and dates. It's the perfect condiment for grilled meats or fish.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my chutney turned out too runny. I think I might have cooked it for too long. Next time, I'll keep a closer eye on it.

This chutney is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still very good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

This chutney is a great way to use up leftover tamarillos. I had a bunch that were about to go bad, and this recipe saved them from the compost bin. The chutney is delicious and versatile. I've used it on sandwiches, crackers, and even ice cream.
