CHILLI CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Chop chillies and onion.
• Simmer all ingredients stirring regularly to prevent catching, until a nice rich brown colour.
• Bottle into sterilised jars, put lids on when cold.

CHILLI CHUTNEY - JAMIE OLIVER

Steps:

• Char each of the peppers over a gas flame or barbecue for 3-5 min until blackened on all sides. Place in a large bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap for 10-15 minutes until softened. Peel away and discard skins. Remove cores, open each pepper and scrape out the seeds. (If you have sensitive skin, use gloves when handling chilis.) Transfer to work bowl of a food processor.
• Heat oil in a skillet. Add onions and sweat 10 minutes until soft and translucent and just beginning to color. Add to food processor.
• Pulse food processor until desired consistency is achieved. Return to skillet.
• Add bay leaves, rosemary, balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, cinnamon stick, salt and pepper and stir. Simmer over low heat 30 minutes until thick and jammy. Remove and discard bay leaves and cinnamon stick. Cool thoroughly and store in the refrigerator.

CHILLI CHUTNEY

• heat oil in pan, tip in all ingredients except tomato puree and bring to boil.

• Continue to simmer on gentle heat until chutney has thickened.
• Remove from heat and cool. Will keep for three days if refrigerated.

TOMATO AND CHILLI CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Place all of your ingredients into a large, heavy-based pan and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally.
• Simmer for 1 hour.
• Using a handheld blender, blend all of the ingredients, but not so much that it becomes a puree.
• After simmering, bring to a gentle boil so that the mixture turns dark, jammy and shiny.
• Place into sterilized jars and place in the fridge for the night. Will keep for 6 weeks.

GREEN CHILE CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Heat a small cast-iron skillet over high until nearly smoking. Add the dal and toast, swirling the pan the entire time, until it takes on a light golden-brown color, 2 to 3 minutes. Immediately transfer the dal to a bowl or plate to prevent it from overtoasting.
• In a food processor, combine the toasted dal and the rest of the ingredients and blend until quite smooth. (It will still be a little chunky.) Blend in water, 1 tablespoon at a time, to achieve a thick consistency that holds together on a spoon and is not runny. Season with additional salt and lemon juice to taste.
• This chutney will keep refrigerated in a covered container for up to 1 week. After that, the vivid green color will begin to lose its vibrancy, though the chutney will still taste delicious for a full 2 weeks.

CARAMELISED RED ONION CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Step 1: Cut your onions and chilli into short, thin slices and put them into a pan with the bay leaves and oil. Cook gently over a low heat for about 20 minutes.
• Step 2: Once the onions are dark and sticky, add the sugar and the vinegars and simmer for 30 minutes or so, until the chutney is thick and dark.
• Step 3: Pour the chutney into hot, sterilised jars and let it cool. Ideally, you should leave it for a month or more before you eat it, to mature in flavour.

PEACH & CHILLI CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pan, add the onion and cook for a few mins until starting to soften. Add the remaining ingredients, increase the heat and stir to dissolve the sugar. Reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, until most of the liquid has evaporated and the peaches have softened - this will take about 45 mins. Meanwhile, sterilise your jars (see tip, below).
• Transfer the chutney to the jars, seal and leave to cool before eating. The chutney can be stored in a cool dry place for up to 1 year. Once opened, keep in the fridge and eat within 4 weeks.
