January 2009 - See Suzie cook....the finale!

So here's the finished product!
I'm suprised how good it tastes.....fruity and spicy.
A match made on heaven for a good ol' ham sanga.
Here's the recipe as promised

Fresh Peach Chutney - Super Food Ideas Dec 2003
Ingredients
  • 1kg yellow peaches, peeled (I used 5 big white peaches and forgot to peel them! Didn't make a huge difference as it all mushes down anyway)
  • 1 small red onion, finely chopped (Small white one instead, couldn't be bothered walking down to the shops to get one!)
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 5cm piece fresh ginger, peeled, grated (Just used the one in a jar...see above comment)
  • 1/2 cup malt vinegar (White vinegar used, same reason)
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons sweet chilli sauce

Method

  1. Cut peaches in half. Remove stones and roughly chop flesh.
  2. Combine peaches, onion, garlic, ginger, vinegar, sugar and sweet chilli in a 3-litre capacity, microwave-safe jug or bowl. Microwave in Panasonic Microwave, uncovered, on HIGH (100%) power for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes, or until chutney is thick.
  3. Spoon hot chutney into hot sterilised jars. Cover with a tea towel and allow to cool. Seal and label. Refrigerate after opening.
It made just the one small jar but that's perfect for us. I really like a good chutney or relish and homemade is twice as nice!
