How to Prepare Loquat Chutney [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

  1. Place apples, onions, golden raisins, vinegar, sugar, garlic, mustard, and curry powders with the peppercorns in a large saucepan with 1-2 tablespoons Himalayan salt.
  2. Stir over low heat until sugar dissolves, then increase to medium-high and bring to the boil.
  3. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, for 1-1 1/2 hours until the ingredients have broken down and the mixture is thick. To test, press the back of a metal spoon into the mixture. If a pool of liquid forms in the spoon, cook for a little longer.
  4. Allow to cool slightly, then gently blend to create a thick sauce, making sure not to overdo it and make it too smooth; you want it to have some chunks.
  5. Pour into sterilized jars, seal, and store until needed.

Notes

  • If you don't have access to loquats, you can use peaches or nectarines.
  • Trim the stem and flower end of the loquats. Remove the stones and any membrane between the stones. The loquats brown a little on the cut edges but regain their colour when cooked. Loquats do not need to be peeled.

  1. The ingredients mention loquats but do not mention tomatoes. It does say “see notes” but I couldn’t find any notes
