Every year, I look forward to Thanksgiving. Everyone has their favorite flavor of the holiday. For some, it’s the mashed potatoes. For others, it’s the pumpkin pie. For still others, it’s the green been casserole.
For me, it’s the cranberry chutney. Our friends, Nick and Heather, shared this recipe and it’s become my fave! Consider giving it a whirl this holiday season:
Soon-To-Be-Famous Cranberry Chutney2 c Whole cranberries
1 1/3 c Sugar (not so healthy, but needed else the cran will tart you to death. Turkey can’t save you!)
1/2 c Dried chopped figs
1/2 c Dried cherries, strawberries, cranberries and/or blueberries
5 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp Water
1/2 c Dried cherries
2 tbsp Chopped red onion
1 tbsp White rum (apple juice can be substituted.)
1/2 tsp Curry powder
1/2 tsp Ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp Fresh grated ginger root
Directions:
Bring all ingredients to a boil.
Reduce heat to medium and cook 18 minutes or until thickened.
Let cool before serving.
Chutney can also be used as garnish on cream cheese dolloped crackers or as condiment on leftover turkey sandwiches.
Yum. Yum.
