Hi all, :D
Like everybody else here chutney production is in full swing, so I thought you might like the recipe of my my favourite one.
2.5 lbs peeled diced pumpkin (approx 1/2 inch cubes)
1.5 lbs cooking apples (cored peeled & diced)
2.5 oz grated root ginger
3 - 4 fresh red chillies chopped finely (remove some seeds if you want)
2 tbs mustard seeds
1 litre distilled vinegar
3/4 lb soft brown sugar
1 tbs salt
Put all ingredients except sugar & salt in a preserving pan, mix well, bring to the boil & simmer for up to 30 mins until the pumpkin has softened but still has a little bite to it. Add the sugar & salt stirring until dissolved, simmer until chutney has reduced to the thickness you are looking for. Bottle as usual.
Adrian.
