Equipment

  • Cutting Board and Knife
  • oven
  • Wooden spoon
  • Large, Heavy-Bottomed Pot

Ingredients

  • 4 pounds of garden-fresh Green tomatoes meticulously chopped into flavorful chunks
  • 16 ounces of Onions chopped, providing savory depth to the medley
  • 2 pounds of Apples peeled, cored, and chopped, each a sweet and crisp orchard jewel
  • 1 teaspoon of Cayenne pepper a subtle kick for a touch of warmth
  • 16 ounces of plump Raisins or sultanas sun-soaked and bursting with sweetness
  • 16 ounces of rich Brown sugar a golden cascade of sweetness
  • 1140 ml of Cider vinegar a carefully fermented elixir of apple essence
  • 2 teaspoons of Ground ginger freshly ground for aromatic richness
  • 2 teaspoons of Ground allspice a warm and exotic spice blend
  • 4 teaspoons of Salt each a pinch of pure sea salt perfection
  • 4 teaspoons of Mustard seeds tiny flavor-packed orbs adding warmth
  • 2 teaspoons of Cinnamon fragrant and comforting spice

Instructions

Prepare Ingredients:

  • Wash and chop the green tomatoes into flavorful chunks.
  • Chop the onions, peel, core, and chop the apples.

Combine Ingredients in a Pot:

  • In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, combine the chopped green tomatoes, onions, apples, cayenne pepper, raisins or sultanas, brown sugar, cider vinegar, ground ginger, ground allspice, salt, mustard seeds, and cinnamon.

Stir and Bring to a Boil:

  • Stir the mixture well and bring it to a gentle boil over medium heat. Make sure the sugar dissolves completely.

Simmer and Cook:

  • Reduce the heat to a simmer and let the chutney cook, uncovered. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Allow it to simmer until the chutney thickens and the flavors meld. This may take 1.5 to 2 hours.

Check Consistency:

  • Test the chutney’s consistency by placing a small amount on a cold plate. If it wrinkles when pushed with your finger, it’s ready.

Sterilize Jars:

  • While the chutney is cooking, sterilize glass jars by washing them in hot, soapy water, and then placing them in the oven at a low temperature to dry.

Jar the Chutney:

  • Once the chutney reaches the desired consistency and flavor, carefully ladle it into the sterilized jars while still hot.

Seal and Store:

  • Seal the jars while the chutney is hot. Allow them to cool completely before storing them in a cool, dark place.

Maturation (Optional):

  • For optimum flavor, let the chutney mature for at least a couple of weeks before opening.

Enjoy:

  • Mary Berry’s Green Tomato Chutney is now ready to be enjoyed with a variety of dishes or as a delightful condiment.

Notes

  •  Make sure to use fresh ingredients for the best results.
  • Taste the chutney and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
  •  If the chutney is too thick, add a bit of water to thin it out.
  •  Store the chutney in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks, or in the freezer for up to three months.
  • Serve the chutney with roasted meats, grilled vegetables, or as an accompaniment to cheese and crackers.
