Hiya,

 

I have the following bits lurking around my kitchen, and would like to turn them into a chutney.....

Yellow Plums; Lemons; Onions; Limes......

Obviously, I have the usual 'spicy' suspects....

Question is: What else would you add to it?

Apples? Pears? Dried Fruit?

 

Thanks for any inspiration!

Dates add a lovely yumminess, imo. Maybe sultanas/raisins if you prefer slightly less sweet.

My favourite is date and apple, but no reason why you shouldn't experiment with your favourite flavours.

Good luck Pete.

Pete

I have a really nice recipe for a spiced plum chutney, I've always used my victoria plums off our tree in August, where did you get the plums from at this time of year?

I think I've seen that!

tbh: they were only off local market stall - not sure where they're from, off the top of my head!

But, they'll make a chutney!!
