Ingredients

• 500 g Fresh strawberries
• 1 medium Red onion
• 60 ml Apple cider vinegar
• 100 g Brown sugar
• 1 tbsp (grated) Fresh ginger
• 2 Garlic cloves
• 0.5 tsp Red chili flakes
• 0.25 tsp Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 1 tbsp Lemon juice
• 0.25 tsp Ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Wash the strawberries thoroughly, hull them, and cut them into quarters.

Step 2

Peel and finely dice the red onion. Mince the garlic cloves and grate the fresh ginger.

Step 3

In a medium-sized heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the diced red onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Cook over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant and softened.

Step 4

Add the quartered strawberries to the saucepan and stir gently to combine.

Step 5

Mix in the apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, red chili flakes, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to incorporate all the ingredients.

Step 6

Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to a simmer.

Step 7

Let the chutney simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until the strawberries are broken down and the mixture has thickened to a jam-like consistency.

Step 8

Once cooked, remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the lemon juice and ground black pepper.

Step 9

Allow the chutney to cool to room temperature before transferring it to sterilized jars or an airtight container.

Step 10

Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Serve alongside cheese boards, roasts, or as a savory sandwich spread.
