This is absolutely delicious. Only made a batch yesterday & added the small amount over to cheese sarnies this lunchtime - it was lovely. I did use 2lb chopped apples instead of 1lb & only 3/4pint of vinegar to make it a thicker chutney. Lovely. - 13 Sep 2014
Spicy and warming. Lovely. - 12 Nov 2013
To be honest, I've only just made it (10 mins ago!), but I have a question- do I have to store it before using and if so how long for? (this all may be moot point as I burnt the bottom layer anyway, and have yet to taste it!!) - 23 Nov 2017
