Ingredients

QuantityIngredient
1Navel orange
3cupsFresh or frozen pitted tart cherries
1cupChopped onion
½cupChopped green capsicum
½cupChopped red capsicum
cupPacked brown sugar
¼cupBalsamic vinegar
2teaspoonsMinced peeled fresh gingerroot
¼teaspoonDried hot red pepper flakes
½teaspoonGround cardamom
½teaspoonDried mint; crumbled

½teaspoonSalt

Directions

With a vegetable peeler remove two large strips of orange zest and cut into fine julienne strips, reserving orange for another use.

In a heavy saucepan stir together all the ingredients and bring to a boil.

Simmer mixture, stirring occasionally (stir more frequently toward end of cooking), about 50 minutes, or until thickened and syrupy. Cool the chutney then pack into sterile glass jars. Seal well.

When sealed in sterile glass jars, this chutney keeps well for up to six months. Alternatively, seal jars and place in a large pot of cold water.

Bring the pot to the boil, then when ready to boil, turn off the heat and remove the jars of chutney. Allow them to cool before storing in a cool dry place. This emulates the ‘fowlers vacola' method of preserving.
