Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1000 grams Green tomatoes
- 250 grams Onions
- 250 ml Apple cider vinegar
- 200 grams Brown sugar
- 100 grams Raisins
- 25 grams Fresh ginger
- 3 Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Red chili flakes
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Wash and dice the green tomatoes into small, bite-sized pieces.
Peel and finely chop the onions.
Peel and grate the ginger, then mince the garlic cloves.
In a large saucepan or pot, combine the diced green tomatoes, chopped onions, grated ginger, minced garlic, raisins, and apple cider vinegar.
Add in the brown sugar, red chili flakes, ground cinnamon, ground cumin, and salt. Stir well to combine.
Place the pot over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Once it starts boiling, reduce the heat to low. Simmer the mixture for about 45-60 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chutney thickens and the vegetables have softened.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed (e.g., add more salt or chili flakes if desired).
Remove the chutney from heat and let it cool slightly before transferring it to sterilized jars.
Seal the jars tightly and allow the chutney to cool completely at room temperature before storing.
Store the chutney in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks or process in a hot water bath for long-term storage.
