Method

  1. Step 1

    Peel and finely chop the onions and garlic, de-seed and finely chop the chilli.

  2. Step 2

    Heat the oil in a large saucepan, add the onion, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes. Add the chopped garlic and chilli and cook uncovered for a further 1 minute.

  3. Step 3

    Add all remaining ingredients. Heat gently, stirring, until the sugar has dissolved. Bring to the boil, then simmer uncovered, for about 45-55 minutes until the liquid has reduced and the chutney is a thick pulpy consistency.

Very sweet. Next time I’ll reduce the sugar by half.

Can I ask do you put the Cherry Tomatoes in as they are or should you skin them? and could you use tinned Cherry Tomatoes? I have given 5stars as it looks delicious but I will make it as my tomatoes are ripe enough

Baking Mad

There is no need to skin your tomatoes before adding to this dish. Fresh tomatoes make this chutney pop with flavour, tinned tomatoes are likely to add addition liquid to the recipe and would affect the overall outcome of your chutney so we wouldn't recommend on this occasion. Enjoy!
