i finally found the best one after trying a lot of brands. I use it on my Indian cooks. Great with tandoori chicken and also samosas. The jar is only about $3 at my local Indian shop. The pic is only tamarind but if you can get the date and tamarind if you can.

With the current ingredient challenge being grapes, it got me thinking about chutneys. I eat them pretty much everyday. My lunch is the same everyday and I vary it with the use of chutney. But chutneys have a lot of sugar in them if you're not careful and as I sat there looking at the amount of...
This 'easy to make' chutney is great with cheese or cold meats or perhaps with a burger. The coffee adds a beautiful depth and complexity of flavour to the sweet onion. No-one will guess the secret ingredient!
Ingredients: serves 4 - 6 (makes 4 heaped tbsps of chutney)
2 large onions, sliced...
I made some plum chutney to go with the smoked goat's curd I made - see here:Applewood Smoked Goat’s Curd with Lacy Whey Pancake and Plum Chutney (the recipe for the chutney is posted there).
Completely unintentionally, the chutney fermented. The way I bottled it was to fill a small jar to the...
There are three recipes in one here. Rather satisfyingly, the pancakes are made from the leftover whey from making the curd. I made this into a fancy presentation but you could just as easily make standard American style shaped pancakes and serve the curd and chutney with them.
The plum chutney...
This is mango chutney for those who find commercially available mango chutney too sweet. If you want to make it sweeter then simply add more sugar. I made a very small quantity using just one mango - but it is easy enough to scale up the recipe if you want to make several jars.

Those of you who celebrate Christmas, do you enjoy the tradition of the "Christmas pickle" ?
For those who ask "What's that ?"
You hide a green pickle ornament on the tree (very popular...can get many places).
When kids are done opening gifts, they look for the pickle ornament...first one to...

This is a hot, sweet and sour pickle. The mint gives a refreshing finish. You don't taste it at first but then at the end it is there. This would be good with a hot curry or with some cold cuts of meat.
Ingredients (makes enough to fill a 300ml jar)
1 mango, peeled and roughly chopped

This is my latest recipe for using up apples. So far I have made apple pickle and apple mustard and have spiced apple chutney to do this week, but today I also had green tomatoes to use up so made a curried green tomato chutney.
The recipe started out as this one but I used red onions, a mix of...

Fresh herbs (optional)

This a recipe for chutney that I originally made in a pressure cooker, so I have given cooking instructions for that and traditional stove top cooking as well. I last made a batch of this chutney in 2011 and have literally got down to the last two teaspoons of it! It has kept beautifully...
This was a happy accident. I have pickled red onions on-hand at any given time, but I generally like to deviate from the standard onion-vinegar-sugar-salt format each time. I've been using rosemary lately, but I ran out of that, so I decided to throw in some parsley. Then, since I felt myself...
Just about any fruits can be put into a chutney. Mango is fairly standard, but I really had a revelation when I decided to try pomegranate. The bitterness of the seeds plays well with the other elements of the chutney, and makes good foil to the sweetness of the mango. The color of this chutney...
If rhubarb wasn't so expensive here (this recipe requires AUD $16 of rhubarb at present) I would be making this in an instant. but as it is, I can only dream until my rhubarb has established itself and I think it is going to need a new home for it to do that. but careful observation had shown...
