Directions
Sweet Tomato Chutney,From ‘An Invitation to Indian Cooking’ by Madhur Jaffrey. This is one of Madhur Jaffrey’s favorite sweet chutneys, she always spoons out a small bowl for all her dinner parties. It goes with almost all foods and is very popular. Store, bottled, in the refrigerator. It keeps for months.,Hi, I have been using this recipe since the book first came out (the seventies!). It is my go-to chutney for canning for gifts. I was wondering if anyone out there has a fool-proof ratio for creating it in bulk? I have doubled it and that works fine. I would like to quadruple it. My experience has been that it all depends on the tomatoes (use canned) and the amount of water. Any suggestions?,Intensely flavorful! used cherry tomatoes from the garden because I planted way too many and needed to use them. SunSugar and Sweet Million. This is serious chutney and we love it on beef, pork and chicken. It’s strong and a spoonful per serving of meat is enough for us, so I ended up freezing some. I’ll find out later if that worked.

If the Canned Tomatoes You Used Have a Lot of Liquid in Them, a Longer Cooking Time May Be Required, Resulting in a Little Less Chutney. |
