chutney making

[darren m]

i fancy making some sandwhich chutney but whats available in natures larder that i could use or is it the wrong time of year although it feels like autumn

 

and is there a fool proof method ie dummy proof

Hugh F-W`s recipe can be adapted to whatever you can get hold of.....plums, pears, carrots, runner beans.....

 

However, unless you have a really big pan(don`t use aluminium) cut the amount down to suit. If you are lucky enough to have a big pan and 4kg plus of fruit and veg then make it as it keeps for years, I think we had some that was great and around 4-5 years old.

Becareful cutting down or doubling recipes they always seem better doing one batch at a time we do rhubarb chutney early on and now tomato chutney and when we have doubled recupies it has tended to be sloppier,so have to cook more,always try to beg a stainless steel pan(large)with a thick bottom,marrow makes a good chutney I have never made it but google it and see what comes up
