Tomato Chutney

 Quite often I have chutneys that are far too rich and dark and really take too much flavour away from cheese - my favourite 'goto' snack. This recipe hits the spot exactly!


Ingredients:
  • Large onion (or red onion) - chopped
  • 800gms of tomatoes - chopped
  • 2 off eating apples - peeled, cored and chopped
  • 4 cloves of garlic - crushed
  • 125g of light muscovado sugar
  • 1 tsp of ground ginger
  • 1/2 tsp of ground mixed spice
  • 1/4 tsp of ground cloves
  • 250ml of cider vinegar

In a pan put all of the ingredients in and stir well. Heat gently and bring to the boil and and simmer well for 1.5 to 2 hours, stirring occasionally. When the mixture reaches a thick stage (moist but not wet), spoon into sterlised jars and seal. Allow to cool. 
The chutney is best left for a week or so but if you can't wait......

Serve with crunchy cheddar and a crusty loaf.
