• Stir the peppers and all the remaining ingredients together in a 4 quart microwave safe casserole.
• Cook, uncovered, at full power(650-700 watts) until thick, 20 minutes.

SPICED PEACH & PEPPER CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a preserving pan or large wide saucepan. Add the onions and fry for a few mins until starting to soften. Add the ginger and cook until soft, another 1-2 mins.
• Stir in the spices for 1-2 mins to release their aroma, then add the peppers, vinegar and sugar. Simmer for 10 mins until the sugar has dissolved and the peppers are starting to soften.
• Stir in the sultanas and peaches, and simmer for another 45 mins until the chutney is pulpy rather than watery. Leave to stand for 15 mins; then, while still warm, pot into sterilised jars. Will keep for 3 months stored in a cool, dark place. Transfer to the fridge once opened and eat within a month.
