Apple and Pear Chutney with Chilli and Coriander Seed

Apple and Pear Chutney with Chilli and Coriander Seed
  • 3 apples, cored and roughly chopped
  • 3 pears, peeled, cored and diced
  • A green chilli, deeded and finely sliced
  • An onion, chopped
  • A thumb of ginger, grated
  • 1 tsp coriander seeds
  • 100g sultanas
  • 250g soft brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 350m cider vinegar

Method

  1. Put all the ingredients in a pan. Heat on the AGA simmering plate until the sugar has dissolved, stirring occasionally.
  2. Continue to heat until it comes to the boil, then simmer until the fruit has softened and most of the liquid has evaporated. You may need to pull the pan half off the simmering plate to give a really gentle simmer.
  3. Cool a little then spoon into sterilised jars. Jars can be sterilised in the AGA warming oven and the lids simmered in a pan of water.
    Store for at least a week and up to 3 months before using.
