Sweet & Sticky Onion Chutney

A sweet and sticky chutney perfect with cheese

The tangyness from the Raspberry Delicious Drizzle is tamed slightly by the Garlic Balsamic Dressing. Together with onions and apple they create a yummy, fruity sweet chutney that compliments peppery dishes or any strong flavoured cheeses quite well. You could play around with the flavours from Cochrane Cottage's range of Drizzles, but I would recommend sticking to the garlic flavoured Balsamic Dressing. This recipe will fill 2 x 250 ml sized jars. Make sure you sterilise them first and the chutney will keep for up to 12 weeks if stored correctly.

Instructions

1. 

   Place a non-stick pan on low heat and add a little butter or oil while you prepare your onions and apple. You can chop them in a blender for a more smooth, buttie friendly chutney - but I like to keep mine a little rough and chunky so chop them by hand.

2. 

   Add all of your onions and apple to the pan. Leave to simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

3. 

   Everything in the pan should have started to go a bit sticky. Add the remaining ingredients, stir and leave it to simmer (still low heat) for a further 30 minutes. You should check on it and give it a stir a few times, but you won't need to be constantly mixing it.

4. 

   All the liquid should have gone dark and thick. Turn off the heat to the pan and warm up your prepared jars by submerging them in hot water.

5. 

   Spoon your yummy sticky chutney into your jars and allow to cool fully before putting the lids on.

6. 

   Now you have 2 jars of lovely sweet onion chutney to give as gifts or enjoy yourself!
