Instructions
- Roughly chop tomatoes and onions.
- Peel and core apples and roughly chop.
- Place all ingredients (except cornflour) in a large saucepan and heat gently until sugar dissolves.
- Increase heat until mixture starts to boil and boil gently, uncovered and stirring occasionally, for approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes or until most of the liquid has evaporated.
- Add enough extra vinegar to the cornflour to reach a runny paste consistency. Add to the chutney and continue to boil for another 1-2 minutes or until mixture is thicker and glossy.
- Pour hot mixture into sterilised jars and seal immediately.
Notes
- TIPS:
- STORAGE:
- ENJOY:
- For best results, chop your main ingredients evenly - about 1-2cm by 1-2cm.
- Is your chutney cooked enough? There should be no runny liquid on the surface of the mixture once it’s been cooked. Some people suggest dragging a wooden spoon through the mixture as a test. If you can see a nice clear line on the bottom of the pot, it’s ready.
- Take care not to burn the chutney. I recommend staying safe by adding the cornflour/vinegar mixture to thicken it up towards the end and avoid burning the chutney.
- Use sterilised jars. I sterilise my jars and lids simply by placing on a hot setting in the dishwasher.
- Pour the hot mixture into the jar and seal immediately using a fresh, clean, plastic-lined twist on lid – making sure it’s on tightly.
- Store your chutney in a cool, dry place and, once opened, in the fridge for up to one month. The amount of time your chutney will last depends on how well you sterilised the jars, how well you seal the jars and whether the jar is stored in a cool, dark place, the fridge or somewhere else.
