10 min PREP TIME
3 9-ounce jars SERVINGS
Ingredients
- 1 pound apples
- 1-1/2 cups raisins
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon fresh, grated ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon table salt
- 1 large onion, finely minced
- 1-1/4 cup cider vinegar
- 3 sterilized jars
Directions
- Peel the apples and cut them into quarters. Then remove the seeds and cut the apple quarters into thin slices.
- Put the apples and the rest of the ingredients into a bowl and set it aside for about an hour.
- Pour the ingredients into a thick-bottomed pan, bring them to a simmer, and then cook them over low heat for about 2-1/2 hours. The chutney will thicken slowly. Stir it regularly to keep it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- Turn off the heat and let the chutney cool for about 20 minutes. Then pour it into the jars and cap them tightly. Turn the jars over to create a vacuum.Tip: This chutney tastes even better if you let it sit for a couple weeks. Store it in the fridge.
