We might as well call this ‘a taste of Northland in a jar’. Kūmara and Banana Chutney is sweet, chunky, full of texture, and definitely not short of flavour! It is packed with bananas grown right here in the Whangārei district, and Kaipara grown kūmara, then topped off with coconut and citrus.
Our Kūmara and Banana Chutney unashamedly heroes banana skins in throughout the chutney. Enjoy the soft, tender, sweetness of the banana skins – the perfect pairing with a sharp cheddar!

Andrew Mack –
I tried it on a whim at Field Days and was very pleasantly surprised. Goes great with salami and a strong cheddar.
