Hi all,
About a year ago, Gardeners World magazine published a good recipe for no-cook apple chutney, which we made and enjoyed. Want to do the same this year with windfalls, but can't now find the recipe.
Could anyone oblige, please?
???
Googled it and came up with this:
Recipe for Kate Auty's No-Cook Apple, Date and Onion Chutney
Ingredients:
* 1 lb/454g of cooking apples
* 1 lb/454g of dates (stoned)
* 1 lb/454g of onions
* 1 lb/454g of soft brown sugar
* 1 pt/570 ml of malt vinegar (we use cider vinegar)
Method:
1. Wash, peel and core the apples and skin the onions.
2. Mince the apples, dates and onions using the coarse profile.
3. Put the minced fruit and onions in a large glass or china bowl.
4. Add the sugar and vinegar.
5. Stir very well and stir once a day for three days, keeping it covered closely with a clean tea towel against flies.
6. On the fourth day bottle the chutney in sterilised jars with plastic lined screw top lids and label.
Is it the same one? Not mine btw! ;)
Thanks a lot katynewbie.
I had also tried googling and found the same, but I'm not sure that it is the same. From memory, I thought that there were some spices in it.
I shall have to talk to the other half later.
Managed to find the recipe that we used last year:
2 lb Apples
1 lb Onions
1 lb Dates
1 lb Sultanas
1 lb Demerara sugar
450 ml Vinegar (malt, cider or white wine)
1 tsp Ground ginger
1 tsp Salt
Cayenne pepper to taste ( important if you want a bit of a kick to it)
We chop it all up fairly finely, stir daily for 4 days, taste and add more Cayenne if necessary, then put into jars. It keeps for ages.
