  Brilliantly simple recipe that makes a tasty and unusual chutney. I make this each year to give as gifts and it must be successful as I keep getting the jars back empty with little hints about "if you are making some more"! If you look in the supermarkets in the few days after Chritmas they often sell off the fresh cranberries very cheap and they freeze well. I have just used a couple of packs from the freezer that I got for 20p each after Christmas last year.

  I made my batch early last month and opened a jar yesterday to have with some cheese and crackers. Absolutely gorgeous and fantastically festively red! I can't wait to give them out for presents this year. I used more red onions than white and would suggest trying to get hold of some red peppercorns just for their colour; they're so pretty. The house did smell like the vinegar whilst cooking, but ignore it because it tastes amazing. I'll be doing this again next year.

  Delicious and extremely easy chutney. Suggest upping the cranberry ratio. Replace eating apples with 500g extra cranberry. Red onions also improve the colour, and you'll probably need slightly more vinegar than suggested (with slightly extra sugar if you do add more vinegar...try an extra 100-200g). Aim for a fairly loose mixture to start, cooked down to a thick consistency. And don't overcook! One hour tops. Wonderful.

  Utterly gorgeous and easy to make. A real hit!! Mine came out looking as red as the photo, so I don't know why some don't? I had to simmer for a bit longer than 50 minutes, maybe 1hr 10m for all the juice to go. I made 6 x 500ml jars and still had a bit left over.

  Made this for gifts at Christmas and had a little bit too much for our jars so we tried some with biscuits and cheese and it was just delicious. It didn't look much like the picture at first - much lighter, but its getter a stronger pinky-red now. I have made dozens of chutneys and it's definitely one of my favourites.

  Stonking and really easy. You need to let the cranberries burst to get the colour. Excellent and everyone loved it.

  Have never made chutney before and this was my first attempt! Not just I loved it, but also the kids who never eats chutney! It went very well with cheese and also poultry. I made 8 x 250ml jars and only have one left as friends loved it!

  Easy to make and quite delicious. This was my first adventure into chutney-making and it went well, with many contented recipients! Used fresh cranberries, but will try with frozen next time... just to see/ taste the difference.

  I made it yesterday and was a bit disappointed at the color. Also, I used the dried cranberries, would that have made a difference? After reading some comments I am really hoping it reddens a bit more.I liked the taste though.

  Absolutely lovely. Made exactly as the recipe. Only down side is biting on a pepper corn! I will remove these before bottling next time.

  I'm waiting for my first attempt at chutney to finish cooking, can't wait to taste it. I bought loads of jars of basic lemon curd as they were just 22p each, far cheaper than buying jars, but what to do with the large container of lemon curd?

  Made this one last year for friends and family. All loved it. A bit sweet for me, would probably add some chilli if i made it again. Also ran it through the magimix for a couple of seconds as it did have some big chunks in. I have just opened the last jar, and is still lovely.

  I halved these ingredients and made just under 1 litre of chutney - i followed the instructions exactly (apart from removing pepper corns before jarring) and it is a lovely red colour just like the example photo. I've made this as a Christmas present for my mum so haven't tried the cooled chutney yet, but had a little try of it when still hot in the pan - tasted lovely and in my opinion not too ginger-y. Very easy for a first time attempt at a chutney/jam!

  Made this last night, used red & white onions but didn't have any root ginger so used ground ginger which has worked equally well. Was little concerned with the apples not holding shape, but other half says its tastes & looks great!

  A lovely way to use up the glut of apples we had this year, tasted it warm and it was delicious though would use more ginger next time.
