This was easy to make and tasted fab. I didn't have any garlic but it didn't seem to make any difference. I will defo make this again. - 21 Sep 2012
I tasted the chutney before I put it in jars. It seemed a bit salty so maybe I didn't rinse it enough? I'll leave it to mature for a month or so then taste it again. - 01 Oct 2013
