Chutneys are absolutely essential components of many Indian dishes. They help to balance the flavors and totally levels up a dish. Chaats use a sweet, spicy and savory chutney. An example would be this khajoor ki chutney, garlic chutney and cilantro chutney. It would also taste great served on a cheese board.
My Mom makes this similarly to Apple Butter Chutney, which is another quick chutney to make.
