How to make gooseberry chutney

 

We have picked all our gooseberries and have made jam and fruit liqueurs with them. The last batch is today in the preserving pan to make chutney. Here are the ingredients:

• 1kg gooseberries
• 800g apples
• 600g onions
• 150g sultanas
• 2 red chillies (dried and chopped)
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1kg sugar
• 700ml apple cider vinegar
• 2 tsp salt
• 2 tsp coriander
• 1tsp mustard seeds
• 1 tsp ground ginger
• 8 cardamon seeds
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp ground black pepper

Put all ingredients into the preserving pan, bring to the boil, let it simmer until it is reduced down to the consistency of a thick sauce. Then put into jars. Leave a couple of weeks before you start to use it.
