15 sour cooking apples
3 medium onions, grated
3 sticks celery, washed and diced very small
3 cups date syrup
1 1/4 cups malt vinegar
1 tablespoon tomato puree
1 1/4 cups white sugar
4 bay leaves
3 small dried red chilies, optional (for flavour not heat)
1 star anise
4 teaspoons mixed spice
4 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons ground black pepper
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
2 teaspoons mixed herbs
1/2 teaspoon prepared English mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt

1
Before preparing the apples put everything else into a medium size pan and bring to the boil, stir well then lower heat to simmer.
2
Grate apples onto a plate in order to catch juice (no need to peel) and place into a large pan, discarding the apple cores.
3
Once finished add everything that's on the boil in the medium pan to the large pan with the apples in it.
4
Bring to the boil, lower heat and simmer until thick and dark brown, approx 30 minutes to 1 hour, stirring from time to time and making sure it doesn't stick especially towards the end. Chutney is ready when it has reduced by approx 1/3.
5
Remove bay leaf, star anise and chilli(s) if using and jar immediately whilst still hot.
6
Will keep for 1 month in the fridge or can be processed and canned for over 1 year (see home page and look for the canning link).
7
Try adding a spoonful to stews and gravies or blend equal parts tomato puree with chutney in a food processor and put into squeezy bottles for a fruity ketchup the kids will love. Cheese on toast never tasted better so try mixing with grated cheese and grill until the cheese bubbles.
