Red Tomato Chutney

I was at the supermarket the other night and saw a huge bag of cherry tomatoes for quick sale, $3 for 2kg so I thought, well here is the perfect opportunity to try a chutney recipe as I LOVE having tomato chutney on toast with scrambled eggs.

Here is the recipe that I used:

Ingredients

1kg ripe tomatoes
2 large cooking apples
250g onions (2 medium sized)
1 cup sultanas (the recipe had 1/2 cup raisins, 1/2 cup sultanas)
250g brown sugar
1 cup vinegar
1 teaspoon mustard
1 teaspoon ground all spice
1 teaspoon salt

Method

1. Roughly chop the tomatoes, onions and apples (the smaller the better for onions and apples) - I couldn't be bothered chopping all of it so I pulsed it a few times in the food processor.
2. In a stainless steel pot, put in all the ingredients except the brown sugar. Bring to the boil.
3. Once boiling, add sugar and once dissolved, reduce the heat to a simmer.
4. Simmer for about 1 hour or until reduced and thick. Stir every so often.
5. If it is not thick enough, using some of the liquid from the pot, combine with cornflour (around 1-2 teaspoons) and stir in.
6. Clean glass bottles and put into oven to sterilize.
7. Place the chutney straight into the glass bottles and immediately put the lids on.

I felt that it was a bit sweet so next time I will use a little less sugar but apart from that, it tastes great. So quick and easy and NO preservatives.
