What each ingredient does

Chutney
Provides sweetness, acidity and fruity flavour that defines the sauce.
Pounded tapioca
Thickens the cream as it simmers, giving the sauce body.
Cream
Forms the rich base of the sauce and adds fat for a smooth texture.

The step that matters

Simmering the sauce. Tapioca must simmer long enough to fully swell and thicken the cream. Stirring occasionally helps prevent cream from scorching or sticking to the bottom of the pan.
