  I just made this chutney and it looks amazing! I have filled 5 Le parfait 200g jars and a haywards pickled onion jar (500g) and am just sterilising another large jar as there is enough for that too! Looks great as a Christmas gift in a nice jar. SO much better than other recipes I have tried! Thanks x

  Made this chuntey this morning - nice and easy but needed a bigger pan as my biggest was overflowing! Will half the ingredients next time. Very sweet but tasty.

  I made this today and it is very tasty indeed. I just used cooking apples - not a mixture of cooking and eating apples - as we had lots of these to use up. I also put an extra 100g of cranberries in as people had commented before that it didn't look very red. The chutney looks ruby red and tastes fantastic... (fab with some Dolcelatte) Yum.

  After reading the comments on here, i halved the ingredients and i still filled three good sized jam jars. I was a bit worried about the vinegary taste while cooking but the finished chutney tastes really good. Would definately reccomend this recipe.

  I made this the other evening, and I must say I really enjoyed making it. Very easy with no real fuss. I couldn't find the 'How To' on how to steralise jars so looked it up, and the easiest way is to wash the jars thoroughly and then place them in an Oven at 140c for 10mins. Remember to take of the seals, I placed these in boiling water for a couple of mins. Anyway, onto the finished item, another reviewer mentioned the lack of colour, if you wait a day or so the red colour really comes through so be patient. The taste, very very nice considering minimal effort, I was a bit suspicious as alot of chutneys have millions of ingredients. Perfect with some cheese and biscuits, or even pate... Highly recommended ,a super xmas prezzie :)

  This made a lovely batch of chutney and was very tasty even though we started eating it the day it was made. Gave all but one jar away for Christmas presents.

  I find sugar in chutneys over powering , can I use less sugar than the original amount ?

  I agree about the need for a longer simmer time - I needed nearly an hour and a half to get the right consistency. Also, had to go to 4 different supermarkets to get cranberries! Well done Waitrose for stocking frozen cranberries all year round!

  Made this morning with frozen cranberries and it taste lovely. It took longer than the 50 mins suggested for reducing the liquid and I couldn't find cooking apples in the States but it does not appear to have affected the taste.

  I was going to ask about using blueberries instead of cranberries - so thanks to pip-a-doodle for her comment!

  Made this one last year, it does take longer than 50mins, and i found that it looked redder the longer it simmered for (I may have also bashed one or two of the whole cranberries in the hope that they would transfer colour!) It is an exceptionally tasty chutney, and made lovely pressies tied with a pretty ribbon and vintage christmas tag. One word of warning- anyone hoping it will create a lovely christmassy smell in your home will be disappointed- the cider vinegar scent is overwhelming!

  I made this for all my friends last Christmas, put it into Kilner jars with Festive ribbon around the top and I even found some old spoons on a local antique market which I attached to the ribbon. It made such a pretty gift, everyone loved it. I did, of course, remember to keep some for myself, delicious!.

  Do you need to have a canner to make this? I have never made anything that goes into jars before :) Would make great Christmas gifts though and would love to give it a try.

  Devonanne - you don't need a canner. Just thoroughly wash out some old jars in soapy water (or put them in the dishwasher) and leave them in the oven on a low heat till they're dry. With the lids - just wash them well. You need to make sure they're the plastic lined ones so the vinegar doesn't react with bare metal - and don't dry them in the oven or they'll melt! Make sure the chutney and the jars are both warm when you fill them. You can put a paper waxed disc on top of the chutney if you want to keep them a while (keeps more air out) but if the lids aren't damaged there should be a tight enough seal to keep it fresh.

  I made it last weekend and it wasn't that read when I first jarred it but it's darkened over the week. My tip would be try and get the cranberries as evenly distributed as possible as in some of my jars one side is redder than the other where the berries were sparser. Kept some in my fridge and it tastes lovely! On another recipe someone suggested buying economy beetroot/pickled onions/lemon curd etc as it's cheaper than buying empty jars!
