Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large (about 2 lbs) ripe peaches
- 2 tablespoons (finely grated) fresh ginger
- 1 medium (finely chopped) yellow onion
- 3 large (minced) garlic cloves
- 0.5 cup apple cider vinegar
- 0.75 cup (packed) brown sugar
- 0.25 cup golden raisins
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cloves
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.25 teaspoon (optional, for heat) red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 cup water
Instructions
Peel, pit, and dice the peaches into small cubes. Set them aside.
In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat a drizzle of neutral oil over medium heat and add the chopped onion. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes until the onion softens and becomes translucent.
Add the grated ginger and minced garlic to the saucepan. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, stirring, until fragrant.
Stir in the apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, water, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, ground cumin, red pepper flakes (if using), and salt.
Add the diced peaches and golden raisins to the saucepan. Stir to combine all the ingredients.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered for 30-35 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking or burning. The peaches should break down and the chutney should thicken as it cooks.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. You can add a little more sugar or vinegar to balance the flavors to your liking.
Once the chutney has reached your desired consistency, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly.
Transfer the chutney to sterilized jars for storage or an airtight container if consuming immediately. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
