Chutney recipes

 

Try bubbling up windfall fruit with sugar to make delicious chutneys or relishes for the winter months – it’s easier than you might think. Plums, pears, blackberries, tomatoes and mangoes are just some of the fruits that take well to being cooked into a syrupy spread. Enjoy these chutneys with your favourite British cheeses, cold meats and home-made pork pies. They’ll also make a classic match with a spicy Indian curry and rice; or as a dip with poppadums, samosas or onion bhajis. It’s best to use a heavy duty preserving pan if you have one, otherwise a heavy-based saucepan will do the trick. Remember to sterilise the jam jars with boiling water before securing with waxed discs and lids. Stored this way they can be kept for up to six months.
