Apple Chutney
This is a great condiment to try instead of the same old chutneys.
Ingredient
1 tsp olive oil
1 one-inch ginger, peeled and coarsely chopped
½ tsp red chili powder
½, tsp turmeric
1 tsp garam masala
3 large apples, cored and cut into 1-inch cubes, about 3 cups
1½ cups water
1½ cups dried, sweetened cranberries (or berries, figs)
Salt and pepper to taste
Method
Heat the oil in a medium-sized, thick-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Add ginger and cook for one minute, stirring regularly. Toss in the red chili powder, turmeric, and garam masala for 2 minutes or more. Gently add in the apples. Add water and bring it to a boil. Reduce to a low heat, add the dried cranberries or whatever berries you're using, and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the apples are mushy and the liquid has decreased. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Your apple chutney is now ready to serve.
