Irresistible Cranberry and Apple Chutney Recipe with a Curry Twist


  • Author: David
  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 4 cups 1x

Description

A tangy and sweet chutney combining cranberries, apples, and warm curry spices for a bold and flavorful twist. Perfect for holiday dinners, cheese boards, or everyday meals.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 ounces fresh cranberries
  • 2 medium-sized apples, peeled, cored, and diced
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1 small red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon curry powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup water
  • Optional: pinch of red chili flakes or handful of golden raisins

Instructions

  1. Wash the cranberries under cold water and set them aside to drain. Peel, core, and dice the apples into small cubes. Finely chop the red onion.
  2. In a medium-sized saucepan, combine cranberries, diced apples, chopped onion, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, water, curry powder, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, and salt.
  3. Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar evenly.
  4. Lower the heat to a simmer and cook for about 20-25 minutes, stirring frequently. The cranberries will pop, the apples will soften, and the mixture will thicken into a jam-like consistency.
  5. Taste the chutney and adjust seasoning as needed. Add more sugar for sweetness or red chili flakes for spice.
  6. Let the chutney cool to room temperature before transferring it to glass jars for storage. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Notes

[‘Use fresh cranberries for the best flavor and texture. Frozen cranberries can be used but may release more water.’, ‘Don’t rush the simmering process; slow cooking allows the flavors to meld and develop.’, ‘Taste and adjust the sweetness, tartness, or spice level to suit your preferences.’, ‘This chutney tastes even better after a day or two when the flavors deepen.’]
