Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I use a different fruit instead of plums for the chutney?
A: Yes, you can substitute plums with other stone fruits like peaches, nectarines, or apricots. Make sure they are ripe but firm enough to hold their shape when grilled. The sweetness and tartness of the chutney may vary, so adjust the sugar and vinegar to taste.
Q: What can I use instead of Greek yogurt for the flatbread?
A: If you don’t have Greek yogurt, you can use regular plain yogurt, but make sure to strain it through a cheesecloth or fine sieve to remove excess liquid. If needed, you can also substitute with sour cream or buttermilk, but you may need to adjust the flour to get the right dough consistency.
Q: Can I make the chutney ahead of time?
A: Yes, the chutney can be made up to 5 days in advance. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Reheat it gently on the stovetop or serve it cold, depending on your preference.
Q: What’s the best way to reheat the flatbread?
A: To reheat the flatbread, warm it in a dry skillet over medium-low heat for 1-2 minutes on each side or wrap it in aluminum foil and place it in a 350°F (175°C) oven for about 5 minutes. Avoid microwaving as it can make the flatbread chewy.
Q: How can I make the recipe spicier or milder?
A: To make the chutney spicier, increase the amount of chili flakes or add a finely chopped fresh chili. For a milder version, omit the chili flakes entirely and ensure the plums used are on the sweeter side.
Q: Can I grill the plums without an outdoor grill?
A: Yes, you can use a grill pan on the stovetop or even a broiler in your oven to achieve similar results. If using the broiler, place the plums on a baking sheet, cut side up, and broil for 3-5 minutes until slightly caramelized.
Q: What are some serving variations for this dish?
A: You can use the chutney as a topping for grilled meats, such as chicken or pork, or serve it alongside a cheese platter. The lime yogurt can also double as a dipping sauce for roasted vegetables, and the flatbread can be used as a base for wraps or topped with hummus and fresh herbs.
