How to Make Spicy Apple And Almond Chutney

  1. Core and roughly chop 1 kg (2.2 lbs) of apples.
  2. Toss the chopped apples with the juice of 1 lemon to prevent browning.
  3. In a large saucepan, combine the chopped apples, 1 cup (200g) flaked almonds, 1/2 cup (100g) brown sugar, 1/4 cup (60ml) apple cider vinegar, 1/4 cup (60ml) water, 1 tsp ground cinnamon, 1/2 tsp ground ginger, 1/4 tsp ground cloves, and 1/2 - 1 red chili, finely chopped (adjust to your spice preference).
  4. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the chutney has thickened slightly.
  5. Remove from heat and let cool completely. The chutney will thicken further as it cools.
  6. Serve chilled with your favorite savories – perfect with cheese, crackers, or as a topping for grilled meats!
