Cameron Prather's squash chutney

Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 3 hours
Servings: 4 people

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound winter squash (any variety, or a combination), diced
  • 1/4 pound cooking apples, cored, peeled and diced
  • 1/4 pound onions, peeled and diced
  • 1/4 pound golden raisins
  • 1/3 cup white sugar
  • 2 tbsp light brown sugar
  • 5 oz sherry vinegar
  • 1 tbsp salt
  • 6 sage leaves
  • 1/2 tsp coriander
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Method
 

  1. Create a spice bag by cutting a small square of cheesecloth and place the sage leaves, coriander and black pepper into the center, tying off with a string.
  2. Combine all the other ingredients in a large saucepan and then add the spice bag.
  3. Bring mixture slowly to a boil, reduce heat and then simmer uncovered for 2 to 3 hours, stirring occasionally.
  4. The chutney is finished when it is reduced to where when a spoon is run through it, the mixture stays parted so you can see the bottom of the pan.
  5. Allow the chutney to cool slightly and then put into sterilized jars. Keeps in refrigerator for 6 months.
