Cranberry Chutney and Cranberry Jam Recipes

Cranberry Chutney and Cranberry Jam Recipes


Keeping in line with what's in Season, I thought I'd share these two recipes with you. One's for a Cranberry Chutney and the other is for a Cranberry Jam. 


Cranberry Chutney

Ingredients

250g red onions, peeled and finely chopped
40ml olive oil
250g white onions
5g mustard seeds
5g cayenne pepper
1kg cranberries
450g light brown sugar
2.5g salt
250g date paste
600ml malt vinegar

Method

Gently cook the onions in the olive oil with the mustard seeds and cayenne pepper until soft. Add the cranberries, sugar and salt and cook on a medium heat for about 15 minutes. Stir in the date paste and vinegar and continue to simmer until most of the liquid has evaporated.

 
Cranberry Jam


INGREDIENTS
1kg cranberry
1kg sugar

Method

Layer the cranberries and sugar in a bowl and leave in the fridge overnight.
Place into a heavy based pan and slowly bring to the boil.  Ensure to wash down the sides of the pan whilst cooking to prevent any sugar crystallizing.
Skim off any scum from the top and simmer until heavy syrup is achieved. (Test in the fridge)
