This is a recipe I put together today as I can't tolerate onions. It has been very difficult finding any chutneys without them. So this is a very fruity spicy Chutney just for me!
The fruit was all home grown even the raisins which dried up on the vine.
3 kilo Apples & Plums Split 50-50 or whatever split you have
Garlic
350g granulated Sugar
2tsp Salt
400ml Cider vinegar
1 tbsp ground Ginger
1tsp Chinese 5 spice
1 tsp Cinnamon
1 tsp Nutmeg
Raisins
Peel & chop roughly the apples, de stone & roughly chop plums. crush & chop garlic. Put the fruit & garlic in a large pan mix together well. Put in each spice one at a time mixing each one in separately add in the salt & sugar then the vinegar, I did add some raisins that had dried on the vine this is optional!
Stir all the ingredients together then bring gently to the boil stirring to dissolve the sugar. Simmer the chutney gently for 90 mins till chutney has thickened enough to leave a channel when you run a spoon across the top.
Put chutney into sterilised Jars & seal, leave for two months to mature, although if there is a little left over it is very nice!
Don't be too precious about the weights & measures
Dobur apetit!!!
