Ingredients
- 250 grams dried apricots
- 1 medium-sized onion
- 120 ml apple cider vinegar
- 120 ml water
- 80 grams brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes
Directions
Step 1
Begin by finely chopping the dried apricots into small pieces. This will help them break down and blend with the other ingredients more easily.
Step 2
Peel and finely dice the onion.
Step 3
In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped apricots, diced onion, apple cider vinegar, and water. Stir to mix well.
Step 4
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Step 5
Once simmering, add the brown sugar, mustard seeds, ground ginger, cinnamon stick, salt, and red chili flakes. Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved.
Step 6
Reduce the heat to low and let the chutney simmer uncovered for about 40-50 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. The chutney should thicken and the ingredients should be fully softened.
Step 7
Once the chutney has reached your desired consistency, remove it from heat and let it cool slightly.
Step 8
Remove the cinnamon stick from the mixture.
Step 9
Transfer the chutney to sterilized jars for storage. Seal and allow to cool completely before refrigerating.
Step 10
Store in the refrigerator for up to one month. Serve as a condiment with curry dishes, grilled meats, or cheese platters.
