Fabulous tomato chutney
About this recipe: This tomato chutney recipe is easy to make and tastes great just on crackers. As this chutney disappears instantly with my family and friends, I always like to make a large amount (but there is still never enough to satisfy the demand...).

- 8 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
- 4 tablespoons freshly grated root ginger

This is one of a very few slow cooking chutney recipes I found which brings back the childhood memories! Like my grandmother used to do I added some red pepperonis to this recipe and now I got some "orders" from lots of friends and family members! - 13 Aug 2011
Very disapointed, what a waste of nearly 3 kgs of tomatoes... and i stuck to the recipe very strict - 28 Aug 2011
