With food costs on the rise there is even more reason to get out to the hedgerows and forage! The windfall season is here and apples and blackberies are there for the picking! Today I will let you in on a wonderful recipe for apple chutney. This recipe has been in my family since I was kneehigh!
You will need:
1.8 kgs apples
.91 kgs onions
.50 kgs sugar
.50 kgs sultanas or dates
sprinkle of salt & cayenne pepper to taste
half litre of apple vinegar
Method:
Wash, core and chop the apples, add the onions, sugar and sultanas (chopped fine) to the pan. Season with salt and pepper. Cover with vinegar and simmer gently for 2 hours stirring frequently. Place into sterilised jars, cover tightly and store in a cool,dark place.
Apple chutney is delightful with all sorts of foods but I love it with cheese dishes miscellaneous salads and even with a spicy curry!
