Spicy Apple Chutney

This chutney has a sweet and spicy flavour and is perfect with Indian style curries, cheeses and roasted vegetables

Makes 4-6 jars

Ingredients

• 250g onions, chopped

• 1kg apples, peeled, cored and chopped

• 100g sultanas or raisins

• 2 tsp grated ginger

• 1 Chili, finely chopped

• 2 tsp ground coriander

• 2 tsp sweet paprika

• 2 tsp mixed spice

• 2 tsp sea salt or Himalayan salt

• 300g brown sugar

• 400ml cider vinegar

Method

1. Put all the ingredients into a pot. Slowly bring to the boil until the sugar has dissolved.

2. Simmer for at least 2 hours, stirring from time to time to stop the chutney sticking to the pan.

3. When it is very thick and you can draw a wooden spoon across the base of the pan so that it leaves a channel behind it that does not immediately fill with liquid, the chutney is ready.

4. Fill into warm, sterilised jars, seal and cool.

5. Store in a cool, dark place for one months before eating.
