I used this recipe too and can vouch for it's fabness - as can all of the customers at my Farmers Market who bought some and are still buying it whenever I make a fesh batch !

3lb green tomatoes
1 lb apples
1 lb courgettes/marrow
1 lb onions
8oz sultanas or raisins
2lb soft brown sugar
1/2 oz salt
1 oz mustard seed
1/2 teaspoon ginger powder
pinch of cayenne
1 pint malt vinegar

Other spices can be substituted, added or omitted, according to what you like and what you have in the cupboard - my chutnies taste different every year!

Finely chop tomatoes, apples (peel and core first), courgette and onion ; I do this in the food processor , but it is successful by hand as well. Place into preserving pan with all other ingredients; bring to boil and simmer until thickened - about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. It is ready when a wooden spoon drawn across it leaves a channel that is slow to fill in across the bottom of the pan. If it thickens up too much before the vegetables are tender, add a little more vinegar. Pot into sterilised jars (I wash them and put them in the oven 10 minutes), seal immediately. Leave to mature for about 2 months before using.

Another one recommending Earthbabe's version - my parents keep running out and asking for more jars of it....
