This pear sauce is a quick and easy summer chutney made with just one fruit, one pan, and five minutes. The ripe pear brings natural sweetness, while a touch of chilli powder adds warmth and lemon juice provides a tangy balance. No preservatives, no fuss—just pure, fresh flavor. The sauce thickens slightly as it simmers, creating a versatile condiment that pairs beautifully with hot parathas, dal-chawal, grilled fish, cutlets, or even as a sandwich spread...
