Christmas Chutney

Nigella Lawson's Christmas chutney is a twist on the traditional recipe.   

Ingredients

700g/1lb 8½oz Granny Smith apples, peeled and cored
250g/9oz dried cranberries
1 onion, finely chopped
350ml/12fl oz apple cider vinegar
200g/7oz sugar
1 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground coriander
2 tsp salt

Directions

Slice the apples into halves. Slice the halves lengthways into smaller pieces, roughly 0.5cm/¼in width.

Place the apple pieces and finely chopped onion into a saucepan with all the other ingredients. Heat the mixture until it is simmering quickly. Cook the mixture for 45 minutes, or until the chutney has thickened slightly and the fruit has become soft.

Spoon the mixture into sterilised jars and screw the lids onto the jars tightly. Allow to cool before storing in a cool, dark place.
