Melon Apple Chutney Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the apples, onion, ginger, orange juice, vinegar, brown sugar, mustard seeds, pepper flakes and salt and in a large saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat to simmer and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, for 50 minutes to 1 hour, until most of the liquid has evaporated. Take off the heat and add the raisins.
• Set aside to cool and store covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients in a large, heavy saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil over a medium heat, then simmer uncovered, stirring frequently, for 30-40 mins, or until thick and pulpy. Remove from the heat, leave to cool and transfer to sterilised, clean, dry jars and seal.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, mix the apples, onion, ginger, vinegar, white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, white pepper, cardamom, and nutmeg. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and cover. Simmer 30 minutes, stirring frequently, until the apples are tender. Mix in some water if necessary to keep the ingredients moist. Remove the onion and ginger, and store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a stockpot over medium heat; cook and stir red onion, red bell pepper, garlic, and ginger until tender, about 5 minutes.
• Mix watermelon, tomatoes, lime juice, curry powder, salt, and sugar into onion mixture; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, until watermelon and tomatoes are slightly broken down, about 10 minutes.
• Fill 4 clean jars with chutney, seal, and turn upside down to mix for 5 minutes. Turn right-side up and refrigerate.

Steps:

• Wrap cinnamon stick, cloves, and allspice in cheesecloth and tie with string to form a bag. Crush spices gently in bag with a rolling pin or bottom of a heavy skillet.
• Bring melon, apple, sugar, vinegar, currants, ginger, cheesecloth bag, and a pinch of salt to a boil in a 1- to 1 1/2-quart heavy saucepan, then reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until syrup is thick and most of liquid is evaporated, 30 to 35 minutes. Discard cheesecloth bag and cool chutney. (Syrup will continue to thicken as it cools.)

Steps:

• Make corn bread rounds:
• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat to 350°F.
• Whisk together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Whisk together butter, milk, and egg in a small bowl, then add to cornmeal mixture and stir just until combined. Spread (or pat out) batter in a very thin even layer in a well-greased 13- by 9- by 2-inch metal baking pan (preferably using an offset spatula).
• Bake until firm and pale golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Cut out 24 rounds from hot corn bread with cookie cutter and transfer rounds to a rack to cool. (Reserve remaining corn bread for another use.)
• Top rounds:
• Spread each round with a thin layer of mustard and top with a few strips of ham and about 1 teaspoon chutney.
