1. Combine all the ingredients, except the pears, in a large, thick-bottomed saucepan and bring to the boil. Simmer uncovered over a very low heat, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon. Continue to cook for about 1 hr, giving it a stir every 10 mins, until the mixture is syrupy. Add the chopped pears and cook for another 30 mins, stirring occasionally. Leave to cool completely, then store in sterilised, clean jars.

  This chutney is so easy to make. I made it with pears from our garden last year. I must say it is one of the best chutnies I have ever had (homemade or shop bought!)

  You don't need to freeze it if you jar it like jam. Basically make sure your jam jars are clean and hot by putting them in a hot oven for about 5 minutes then add your chutney mixture so it reaches the neck of your jar, add a wax circle to the help keep out the air and put the lid on whilst it is hot - when the jars cool this heat seals the chutney and should last in your store cupboard for months if not years!

  Really easy to make but open your windows, the vinegar boiling off made my eyes stream!! Had a quick taste before putting into jars and it's really nice. Made 3 x 454g jars (standard jam jar size).
