I didn’t know that home made chutneys are so easy to make! And so damn tasty! I made this delectable tomato chutney with green tomatoes that were picked fresh out of my mother in law’s garden. She is extremely gifted when it comes to gardening and my husband definitely inherits his green fingers from her.
This chutney will go superbly with Indian flatbread due to the heat or with a strong mature cheddar or brie and crackers as it is also sour and slightly sweet! An all rounded chutney. Shame that 1kg of toms gave me 1 small jar of chutney. However I know where I can find more tomatoes! Mother in law I’m on my way!
With tomatoes being harvested, do give this simple recipe a go! You’ll make it again and again
INGREDIENTS
1kg green tomatoes cored and chopped
1 large white onion diced
1 cup cider vinegar
1¼ cup brown sugar
1 tbsp crystallized ginger
1 tsp red dried chilli flakes
1 tsp salt
1 cinnamon stick
1 tsp mixed spice
METHOD
Place all the ingredients into a large saucepan, mix well, bring the contents to a boil and then cover, simmer for 50 minutes on a low to medium heat
Make sure most of the liquid has evaporated, this will give the chutney an intense flavour

Thanks for sharing this recipe, I was looking for a chutney to try
My pleasure, do let me know how it goes
Sure!
I love green tomato chutney. It was my “gateway chutney.” Since then I’ve made a similar recipe substituting underripe plums and another with dried apricots and dates. So good!
Thank you…I hope to explore other fruits too!
looks divine 🙂
Thank you so much!
Looks yum !!
Thank you so much!
this look so good!
I had no idea how chutney was made– I thought it was more fruity than based on tomatoes! This looks like a fun practical recipe to have on hand to use in a lot of dishes! thanks.
Ooo, this is a first, green tomato chutney eh? Green tomatoes are widely used in the southern part of the USA, they make so many great dishes with them. I love your chutney, I’m sure the chilli flakes and ginger gave it a nice zip!
Gorgeous chutney! I whipped up a fresh cranberry and apple chutney last week, great for turkey or chicken. Yours looks like it would be amazing with any kind of red meat. Nicely done!
Thank you so much! Yours sounds wonderful too
