Plum chutney
I had leftover plums in the house and as I don`t like to trow away perfectly fine food I made this sweet and tangy plum chutney with warm spices. Plum chutney goes very well with pork,so todays dinner will be this tasty chutney, pork chops and mash. The recipe is adapted from Jamie Oliver. I made a small portion but you can double the recipe if you like.
Chutney
Tip;
- I used half apple cider and half red wine vinegar
- You can double the recipe
- Chutney makes great gift, decorate the jar with a label and a nice ribbon.
