Pumpkin Ginger Chutney
My mother gave me this recipe a few years ago, she found it in her local newspaper, it is a sweet chutney and goes very well with chicken and turkey. The original recipe uses brown sugar but i use the white, this way you keep the wonderful pumpkin color. You can leave out the chilli pepper and use approx 4 oz fresh grated ginger instead of the crystallized.
Steps
Put all ingredients in a large stainless steel pan , bring to the boil , boil for 3 to 5 minutes then simmer on low heat for 50 to 60 minutes , if needed add a few more tablespoons of water and , depending on the pumpkin , mash the flesh a little bit if necessary.
Remove the cinnamon stick.
Put in clean hot jars , seal and label when cold.
Keep in cool dark place , once opened keep in the fridge.
Ingredients
