Simmer over a low heat, stirring regularly, for about 30 minutes or until reaches a thick consistency. Remove from the heat and leave to cool.2. For the cheese fondue: combine the wine, garlic, chutney and parsley in a fondue pot or small saucepan and stir in the grated cheese.
3. Just before serving, place the fondue over a low heat until the cheese melts and begins to bubble. Do not stir too much while it is cooking, otherwise the mixture may split.
4. Serve the fondue immediately with the toasted cubed bread and the tomato chutney.
