Tomato Chutney

"I got given a large lot of tomatoes from a grower so used some to make this, this is a lovely sweet chutney that goes great on sandwiches or alongside some roast beef or lamb and if stored correctly will apparently keep for up to 1 year."

  1. I hate to leave such a low rating, but this chutney was just too sweet for us. We loved the idea of having onion, apple, pear, tomato and chili flavours all mingling with a little sweetness, but in the end all we could taste was sweetness and heat. We dont eat a lot of chutney, maybe that is why this one wasnt for us. For someone else this might be a 5 star recipe, but for us it unfortunately was not.<br/>THANK YOU SO MUCH nonetheless for sharing your recipe here with us, Mandy!<br/>Made and reviewed for Aussie/NZ Recipe Swap #48 January 2011
     
  2. This is so easy to make and so yummy. I made the whole three cups and it made four jars (two small jars and two large jars). I think if I make this again I would grate everything (onions, apples and pear) and finely chop the tomato's. The chutney didn't break down as well as I wanted them, maybe I had the simmer down to low, so I puree half of the batch. Will be giving a jar to my parent in laws, neighbor and maybe enter one in into a local tomato chutney competition/contest if I'm not late to enter. Thanks **Mandy** for posting this recipe.
     
  3. This is a great and easy chutney recipe to make. I got 3 jars of this fantastic chutney recipe. I did peel the tomatoes (only because the family hate tomato skins in anything) but the rest was followed exactly as per recipe. DH cut up the ingredients and they were a little large, but I just waited for everything to cook down and mashed them......... just a little, during cooking. This chutney turned out perfectly, and the taste....well I only had a taste whilst bottling . ........But the what I did taste was fantasctic, sweet yet spicy, with a great tomato flavour. Thank You Mandy I am making more again this week.
     
  4. What I ended up with was quite good, but I had no idea what mixed spices to use...so I winged it with some other chutney recipes. I made one cup because I don't can, but I'm sure it will be gone before the week is over! Yummy!
     
  5. Made this specifically to use in Mandy's recipe #300250, but since I also enjoy chutney, I just had to try this one out! DEFINITELY A KEEPER, & the next time I have a sandwich bar, this will be on it! Enjoyed the combo of tomato, apple & pear here!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Melbourne I live on a 5 acre property in the Dandenong Ranges Victoria, Australia, having moved from the burbs when I became pregnant with my now 15 year old daughter Alyssa. Once my daughter was born I became a stay at home mum as I couldn't bear the thought of putting her in daycare. She is the light of my life, I never imagined myself as a mum when younger but now wouldn't have it any other way. Alyssa was made a big sister on the 19th April 2010 when our cheeky little boy Blake was born. I love cooking and experimenting with new recipes so quickly become addicted to Zaar as it was previously known & still use it regularly. In addition to being my kids taxi :lol: I also spend my time, reading, gardening and of course shopping. I'm lucky enough that we have the space & so love growing our own fruits, vegies & herbs, this also means we have plenty of room for animals & at the moment have 2 dogs, Max, a Jackshund who's 6, Fletcher, a Kelpie who's 4, 6 cats Snowpea, Fergus, Ginger, Tango, Annie & Cookie, 4 chooks & 2 Ducks. As well as our pets, we also have a lot of native animals around our area, we have kangaroos, wombats, echidna's, possums as well as rosella's, galah's & Cockatoo's hence the name of where I live..
