Method
- Cut out a 12cm square of muslin and put the ginger, cinnamon and cloves in the centre. Bring the corners together and tie firmly with a piece of kitchen string to enclose.
- Put the muslin bag along with all the remaining ingredients into a preserving pan or large saucepan. Heat gently until the sugar dissolves.
- Bring the mixture to the boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 30 minutes or until thickened. To check if the chutney is ready, draw a wooden spoon across the base of the pan – it should leave a visible channel for 1-2 seconds.
- While the chutney is still hot, decant into hot, sterilised jars (see know-how), then cover with discs of waxed paper and seal with lids.
- When cold, label and leave to mature in a cool, dark place for at least a month before eating.
