  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.

  I really want to try this but am put off by the fact that it is an incomplete recipe as it does not state how long it keeps.

  Going to try this for Christmas pressies so hope it's as good as everyone says! In answer to What Grenadine syrup is - rather than find it in your store cupboard you're more likely to find it in a cocktail cabinet! You'll find it in the supermarket with the liqueurs etc. It's a red sugary syrup used in a lot of cocktails and it's really cheap.

  Does this chutney have to rest before eating? I would really like to make it to go with the Christmas cheeses but feel that I may have left it way too late if it has to have that special month to enhance the taste.
