Step 1To make the spiced mango chutney, combine the oil, onion, chilli, ginger and salt in a large, 7cm deep frying pan (see tip). Place over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring every 6 minutes or until onion is soft and translucent.

Step 2Add the mango, apple, sugar, vinegar and port. Increase heat to medium-high, bring to the boil, stirring until sugar has dissolved. Boil gently, stirring often, for 20 minutes or until thickened.

Step 3Spoon the hot chutney into hot sterilized jars, seal. Turn upside down and stand for 2 minutes then turn right side up and allow to cool. Store in the fridge for up to 6 months Spoon a heaped spoonful mango chutney onto 4 slices of the bread. Top with the ham and cheese. Sandwich with the remaining bread.

Recipe Notes
Leave the seeds in if you like the chutney spicy.
Using a wide deep-frying pan speeds up the cooking time, if you don’t have a deep wide pan, use a large saucepan, the cooking time will be about 10-15 minutes longer.
