Chutney recipe

A sweet and sour sauce that goes with everything!

Irish Chutney is a sauce made from fruit and vegetables browned in honey, then stewed for several hours. This strange sauce is actually delicious, and goes perfectly with meats such as chicken, beef and lamb. But they’re just as good on Brown Bread on their own, or in a sandwich!

Simple and original to make, Chutney is a sauce that the Irish like to use every day, but especially at Christmas time, to liven up an Irish Spiced Beed, a dish based on spiced beef and Guinness that is eaten cold…

Generally speaking, Irish Chutney uses apples for the most part, with other fruits and vegetables as complements. A touch of ginger and honey freezes the preparation in truly delicious bittersweet flavors…
