Papaya Chutney from Namibia

Pane-Bistecca

Papaya (called pawpaw) grows almost everywhere in northern Namibia, it is a frugal plant. Papaya chutney goes really well with everything, whether meat or vegetables, it does not always have to be curry! I often use chutney in marinades and on cheese buns. This pawpaw chutney is simple, delicious and cooked quickly!
