A chutney is a savory fruit condiment that adds lots of flavor with a minimum of calories. Try this at your next holiday gathering as an accompaniment to turkey. Makes 2 quarts - enough to take you through the entire holiday season!
Ingredients:
2 pounds cranberries
1 cup water
2 cups apple cider vinegar
6 seedless navel oranges (zest removed and reserved, white pith removed and discarded, pulp of each orange coarsely chopped)
2 cups white sugar
2 cups brown sugar
1/2 cup honey
1 tablespoon each of red pepper flakes, cinnamon, allspice, ginger, mace, salt
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 large onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
3/4 pound of raisins
Directions:
Combine cranberries, water and vinegar in a large stainless saucepan and bring to a boil. Boil for 6 minutes or until the cranberries pop. While they are cooking, measure the remaining ingredients and place it all in a bowl. After the cranberries have burst, add the remaining ingredients and simmer until the consistency is jam-like, about 30 to 40 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent scorching. This makes a wonderful accompaniment to turkey.
