How to Make Apricot And Date Chutney

  1. Cover 1 lb apricots with water and let soak for 1 hour.
  2. Drain the apricots.
  3. Combine the soaked apricots, 1 cup sultanas (golden raisins), and 1 cup white wine vinegar in a large saucepan.
  4. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the liquid is almost evaporated.
  5. Stir in 1 cup pitted dates, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup grated ginger, 1 tbsp ground cinnamon, 1/2 tsp ground cloves, 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg, and 1 cup water. (Optional: Add 1-2 finely chopped fresh chilies for extra heat).
  6. Simmer for another 5-10 minutes, or until the chutney has thickened to your desired consistency, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  7. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  8. Pour into sterilized jars, leaving a small headspace. Seal tightly.
