What's better than homemade chutney? This foolproof recipe strikes a balance between sweet, sour, and savory.
Ingredients
Pineapple and Pear Chutney
- 1 piece pineapple peeled and chopped (about 600 grams peeled and chopped weight)
- 4 pieces fragrant pears (about 500 grams in total), peeled, cored, and chopped
- 1 Table Spoon ginger grated
- 1 piece white onion finely chopped
- 1 piece cinnamon stick
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cloves
- 2 pieces star anise
- sea salt to season
- black pepper to season
- 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes depending on how spicy you want it
- 600 ml cider vinegar
- 500 Grams brown sugar
Instructions
- Combine pineapples, pears, ginger, onions, cinnamon, cloves, star anise, pepper, salt, chili flakes, vinegar, and sugar in a large, non-reactive pot. Â Â
- Place the pot over medium heat and bring to a boil. Lower to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened and jammy. This can take anywhere from 45 minutes to over an hour. Taste and adjust seasoning. You are looking for that perfect balance between sweet and savory.
- Immediately pour into sterilized bottles and store in the pantry. Refrigerate once opened. If your bottles aren’t sterilized, you should refrigerate the chutney immediately once cool. Â
