How to Make Apricot And Lime Chutney Relish

1. Score the skins of 1 lb apricots and soak in a bowl of boiling water for 5 minutes.
2. Remove apricots from water and gently peel off the skins.
3. Remove the pits from the apricots.
4. Chop the apricots into ½ inch pieces.
5. Place the chopped apricots and 1 cup granulated sugar in a medium saucepan.
6. Finely slice 1 medium red onion and add it to the saucepan.
7. Add 1/2 cup lime juice, 1/4 cup lime zest, 1/4 cup white wine vinegar, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), and a pinch of salt to the saucepan.
8. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low.
9. Simmer gently for 1 hour and 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chutney has thickened considerably and become syrupy.
10. For a smoother consistency, carefully blend the chutney using an immersion blender (or transfer to a regular blender). Alternatively, leave it chunkier for a more rustic texture.
