Apple-Apricot Chutney
Ready In: 50 mins
Yields: 2 cups
Ingredients
- 1 1⁄2 cups coarsely chopped peeled apples (typically, 2 apples are needed)
- 1 cup halved dried apricot (pack them into measuring cup when measuring)
- 3⁄4 cup white wine vinegar
- 1⁄4 cup golden raisin
- 2 tablespoons finely minced fresh ginger
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled and very thinly sliced
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon hot pepper flakes (or less)
- 1 cup white sugar
Directions
- In a large heavy pot (nonaluminum), combine fruit, vinegar, raisins, ginger, garlic, salt and hot pepper flakes; stir well.
- Over high heat, bring to a boil.
- Next, turn heat down to low, cover pot and simmer for about 10 minutes, or until you see that the apricots have plumped up.
- Stir in sugar and return to a simmer; cook, uncovered and stirring very often, for about 20 minutes; mixture should appear thickened.
- Place mixture in a clean pint (2-cup) jar and let cool a bit before screwing on lid; then keep chutney refrigerated.
- Serve, cold from fridge, with a pork roast or with chicken, or in a sandwich, or with cream cheese and crackers; keeps well in fridge for at least 2 weeks--if it lasts that long without being devoured!
