Mild famous south african chutney

INGREDIENTS
Makes 18 bootles used as a condiment on meat dishes


• 1.35 lbs dried Peaches (21.5 oz)

• 0.52 lbs dried Apricots (8.4 oz)

• 3 quarts Brown wine vinegar (12.7 cups)

• 5½ lbs white Sugar

• 1.1 lbs Onions

• 0.4 oz Salt

• ¼ oz Cayenne Pepper

• 1 – 2 quarts Brown wine vinegar (for soaking)

• 2 quarts Brown wine vinegar (for mixing)

INSTRUCTIONS



• The fruit should be left in the soaking vinegar overnight, then cooked in the same vinegar until soft. Drain.

• Put the fruit through a mill.

• Add the sugar (dissolved) and onions (minced) and cook in a pot with the brown wine vinegar. The amount of vinegar depends on the consistency. It should not be too runny or too thick, but have the same consistency as the end product you find in the bottle.

• Add spices and cook for one to two hours. Stir occasionally with a wooden spoon to prevent burning.

• Sterilize your bottles and spoon in the mixture.

Spot on..... just added a dash of chilli flakes to leave a "bite" in your mouth and Bob's your uncle.
I'm used to Mrs H.S.Ball's famous chutney which I know is over 75 years old.
I can remember having it on the dining table as a small child in Africa.
