Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 900g (2lb) seedless grapes, chopped
- 900g (2lb) apples, peeled, cored and finely chopped
- 450g (2 1/4 cup) granulated sugar
- 500ml (2 cups) white wine vinegar
- 1 lime, juice and zest
- 1g (1/4 tsp) salt
Instructions
- Place the grapes and apples in a large heavy bottomed pan with the sugar and vinegar then bring slowly to the boil.
- Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer and cook for 45 minutes, or until the fruit is soft and the chutney on the thick side.
- Stir in the lime juice, zeste and salt.
- Cook for another 15 minutes, or until the chutney is thick.
- Tip the chutney into freshly sterilised jars, then cover and seal.
- Leave to mature for at least 1 month before eating. Enjoy!
Notes
- 900g of grapes are approximately 6 cups.
- Tart cooking apples, such as Bramleys, are preferred in this recipe.
- As an experiment, I kept the grapes whole in this recipe. Final thoughts? I think it’s better to chop/halve the grapes for a better texture and a more uniform chutney. Still tastes great though!
