Surinaams Chutney

The Taste of Surinaams Cooking

Surinaamse chutneys bring a distinctive fiery-sweet character to the table, built on hot peppers, garlic and fruit.

The Madame Jeanette pepper does much of the work, delivering serious heat balanced by sweetness, while milder fruit-based chutneys offer the tang without the burn.

They are the finishing touch on roti, bara and rice dishes across the Surinaams-Hindustani community, and a single spoon carries both heat and brightness into a meal.

Build an authentic Surinaams plate.

Pair your chutney with the right the matching Surinaamse masala, season the base with cumin, turmeric and coriander, and serve over plain long-grain rice.

Rolling roti to go with it? Keep fine roti flour on hand.
