Asia Nora Apricot Chutney Recipes

Steps:

• Put the onion, ginger, apricots, sugar, vinegar, water, curry powder, cardamom and cinnamon in a medium saucepan.
• Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until the chutney takes on the consistency of a jam.
• Stir the chutney from time to time to prevent it from burning. Cool. If you want a spicy chutney, add some minced chili pepper to the mixture.

Steps:

• In small saucepan over low heat, stir together 3/4 cup water, distilled and red wine vinegars, sugar, honey, onion, ginger, cloves, salt, and pepper. Simmer, uncovered, until onions are very soft, about 5 minutes. Add apricots and simmer, uncovered, until apricots are very soft and liquid is syrupy, about 40 minutes. Cool to room temperature before serving. (Chutney can be made ahead and refrigerated, covered, up to 2 days.)

Steps:

• Cook garlic and ginger in oil in a 1- to 1 1/2-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring, until golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Add mustard seeds and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add remaining ingredients and simmer, partially covered, stirring occasionally, until almost all liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes (chutney should be moist). Cool to room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat oil and curry powder in a 2-qt. saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until curry powder is fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add onion, garlic, and ginger and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 10 minutes.
• Add apricots and raisins along with 1 cup water, lime juice, and sugar. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 20 minutes.
• MAKES 2 CUPS.

Steps:

• In a saucepan combine vinegar and apples. Add apricots, boiling water, onions, sugars, garlic, raisins and ginger. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat stirring constantly. Reduce heat and boil gently stirring occasionally for 30 minutes. Add mustard seeds, cinnamon, allspice black pepper, cloves, salt and cayenne. Boil gently stirring frequently until thick enough to mound on a spoon, about 15 minutes.
• Prepare canner, jars and lids.
• Ladle chutney into jars, remove air bubbles, wipe rim and place lids and rings.
• Process 10 minutes.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine all the ingredients; bring to a boil over high heat.
• Reduce heat, and simmer uncovered, 30 minutes or to desired consistency, stirring occasionally.
• Cover and chill.
• Serve with ham or cheese and crackers.

Steps:

• Mix together all the ingredients in a large saucepan.
• Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 1 hour, uncovered, or until juice has thickened.
• Pour into warm sterilized jars and seal.
• May be eaten immediately but the flavour improves after a few days.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Slice the top off the half head of garlic with a sharp knife, exposing the cloves. Discard the top. Place the head of garlic on a piece of aluminum foil, drizzle with 1/4 teaspoon of olive oil, and wrap the foil around the garlic. Roast in the preheated oven until golden brown, 30 to 40 minutes.
• While garlic is roasting, place the onion and 1 tablespoon of olive oil into a saucepan over medium heat and cook and stir until the onion is browned, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in the apricot preserves, vinegar, ginger, cayenne pepper, and salt until thoroughly combined.
• Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skins, and mash them in a bowl with a spoon. Mix the garlic into the chutney; bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat and simmer until thickened, about 25 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir carefully because any splashes of chutney will be burning hot.
• Pack the chutney into sterilized jars and process to seal.

Steps:

• Combine rhubarb, dates, apricots, onion, brown sugar, vinegar, candied ginger, nutmeg, curry powder and salt in non-reactive saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and cook, uncovered, for 8 minutes or until thickened and fruit is soft, stirring frequently.
• Ladle into sterilized, hot pint jars to within 1/2-inch. Seal and process in boiling water canner for 15 minutes (10 minutes if using 1/2-pint jars).
