What is Apple Chutney?
Apple chutney is sweet and spicy relish or sauce or spread made with ripe apples and few optional spices. I like to use a mix of cumin powder, cinnamon powder and cardamom powder for flavor.
You can totally play with the spices, sweetener in this recipe to vary the flavor. As we are not using any preservative except lemon juice, keep this chutney refrigerated and use within 8-10 days.
I prefer to use ripe sweet Kashmir apples for this recipe. Kashmir apples are soft and cook very easily, most suited for this recipe.
While you can use any variety of apple like red delicious, granny smith or fuji, make sure they are ripe and sweet. Also adjust sweetener accordingly.
