Date chutney

By Monche Muller

Serves 2 jars

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cooking Time 10 minutes

Ingredients

250 g pitted dates
60 g dried chillies
5 cloves garlic
60 g root ginger
250 ml brown vinegar
salt, to taste

Method

Place all the ingredients, except the vinegar, in a food processor and blend until smooth.

Add the vinegar and continue blending.

Place the mixture in a saucepan and bring to a boil.

Let the mixture cool down if serving straight away, otherwise spoon into sterilised jars while still hot.

Cook's note: this chutney goes excellently with lamb curry in a bunny chow made with individual potbrood.
