Keith Floyd's Green Tomato Chutney

What you need:

* 15g/½oz root ginger
* 8-10 chillies
* 2kg/4lb green tomatoes, chopped
* 500g/1lb apples, peeled, cored and chopped
* 250g/8oz raisins, chopped
* 625g/1¼lb shallots, chopped
* 2 tsp salt
* 500g/1lb brown sugar
* 570ml/1 pint malt vinegar



An now for the easy method:

1. Bruise the ginger and tie in a muslin bag with the chillies.
2. Place all the other ingredients in a preserving pan and suspend the muslin bag among them.
3. Bring to the boil, stirring until the sugar has dissolved, and simmer until the desired consistency is reached.
4. Remove the muslin bag. Pour into warmed sterilised jars, cover and label.

OR!!!! Using my tried and tested methos forget about the muslin bag and just put all the items from the bag in the the mix and after the sugar has dissolved!
