Keep this in the fridge to bring out with cheese and bread or leftover cold meat.

Ingredients

1 kgTomatoes, ripe, cored and chopped (Main)
1Apple, peeled and chopped
1Onion, chopped
½ cupRaisins, I use the jumbo raisins
2 TbspMalt vinegar
1 ¼ cupsSoft brown sugar
1 ½ tspMild curry powder
1 ½ tspMustard powder
1 TbspFlaky sea salt
1 ½ tspCornflour, for thickening

Directions

  1. Place the tomatoes, apple, onion, raisins, vinegar, sugar, curry powder, mustard powder and salt in a medium-sized saucepan and stir over a low heat until the sugar dissolves.
  2. Increase the heat and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is thick — about 40 minutes.
  3. Mix the cornflour with a little cold water, stir into the chutney and cook a further 10 minutes.
  4. Cool, then pour into sterilised jars.

Cook's notes

  • To test whether the chutney is ready, press the back of a metal spoon in the mixture; if a pool of liquid forms in the spoon, cook a little more.
  • As you are stirring the mixture, you can remove any large shards of tomato skin that come to the surface.
  • Add a fresh chilli and remove once the chutney is cooked.
