This is a chutney recipe that my dad made for many years, and I have made ever since. It’s tried and tested and is lovely.
Ingredients
- 3 lb green tomatoes – chopped into 8ths
- 1 1/2 lb apples – chop coarsely
- 3/4 lb sugar
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 6 oz raisins
- 3 pts vinegar
- (1/2 oz root ginger & 3 tbsp pickling spice in muslin bag tied to handle of pan)
Method
Add all of the ingredients to a pan and bring to the boil.
Reduce until the mixture on the spoon leaves a trail.
Good morning – I’m about to use your family recipe to make green tomato chutney & suspect the quantity of salt may be a typing mistake. I think I’ll use a little less! I just wondered if it could be reviewed.
I love all these local recipes.
Many thanks

Thanks Anne. We think this should read 3/4 tsp salt – I’ve now amended the recipe. Happy cooking!
