Hundred Chilli Chutney
1lb 2oz (roughly) cooking apples, chopped
2 medium onions, finely chopped
1lb 'Basket of Fire' Chillis - 100 chillis 80,000 SHU* (use hotter chillis if you dare), very finely chopped (wear a glove)
8oz dates, chopped
4 cloves garlic, crushed
1 pint malt vinegar
4oz soft light brown sugar, or more if liked
Spices:
Ground ginger, ground allspice, mustard powder, ground coriander, ground black pepper, ground white pepper, Tabasco sauce. Amounts to taste - I like chutney very spicy.
Mix all ingredients together in a wide pan. Simmer gently until softened and all the vinegar is absorbed. Pot up and seal.
*SHU = Scoville Heat Units
This amount made 8 x half pound jars.
Leave until the New Year for the chutney to meld.
I haven't tasted it yet and made up the recipe, so I hope some of you give it a try to compare.
