1. Place the onions and sugar in a saucepan, cover and cook over medium heat until soft, about 10 mins. Pour in the red wine vinegar and red wine, then simmer uncovered until the liquid has reduced and the mixture is sticky, about 10 mins more. Add the grenadine syrup and mix well. Leave to cool, then transfer to a sterilised jar and seal.

  Instead of sugar and red wine vinegar I used balsamic vinegar. It still gives the same sweet/tangy effect and makes it suitable for diabetics!

  Took a lot longer than 10 mins to get to the stage where it was sticky but I find this happens often with chutney recipes. I think it is down to the pan I use. Once it was done it tasted great!

  Per Janice's comment: 8 red onions doesn't mean anything when you grow them yourself! Mine range from MASSIVE to teeny weeny, so I'm going to have to work out what you mean by 8! I shall definitely omit the grenadine syrup... I've never even heard of it and I wonder how many people actually have this in their storecupboard?

  I used 4 large shop bought onions for this recipe and found this was just the right amount. I agree with Raffie - I cooked this recipe and it took a lot longer than 10 minutes for it to turn sticky. But apart from that the chutney is lovely!

  Tasted fabulous straight after cooking. Can only imagine it will taste even better after a few weeks. As with most chutney recipes, totally disregard any timings and just cook it until the consistency is right.
