• Place the chopped tomatoes and onion in a large dish or colander and cover with salt. Leave for a few hours to drain off the liquid.
• Put the tomatoes and onions in a saucepan and add three quarters of the malt vinegar and boil for five minutes. Stir in the sugar.
• Meanwhile blend the flour, mustard powder, curry power and cayenne pepper, if using, into a smooth paste with the remaining malt vinegar.
• Add the paste to the pan and simmer gently for one to one and a half hours. To test whether the chutney has reached the required consistency, draw a wooden spoon through the mixture: it should leave a clean path with no free liquid showing.
• Decant into warm jars.
• The finished chutney mellows with keeping and should be kept for at least 6-8 weeks before eating.

Steps:

• Put the chopped garlic, ginger and 1/2 cup of the vinegar into the container of an electric blender and blend at high speed until smooth.
• In a 4-quart, heavy-bottomed pot with non-metallic finish, place the tomatoes and juice from the can, the rest of the vinegar, the sugar, salt and cayenne pepper (or, if you prefer, add the cayenne at the end, a little at a time, stirring and tasting as you do so).
• Bring to a boil.
• Add puree from blender.
• Lower heat and simmer gently, uncovered, for about 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until chutney becomes thick.
• (A film should cling to a spoon dipped in it.) Stir occasionally at first, and more frequently later as it thickens.
• You may need to lower the heat as the liquid diminishes.
• You should end up with 2 1/2 cups of chutney, and it should be atleast as thick as honey after it cools.
• If the canned tomatoes you used have a lot of liquid in them, a longer cooking time may be required, resulting in a little less chutney.
• Add the almonds and the raisins.
• Simmer, stirring, another 5 minutes.
• Turn heat off and allow to cool.
• Bottle.
• Keep refrigerated.
