I have made a similar chutney the last ...Hey Dave,<br /><br />I have made a similar chutney the last two Christmasses to add to the festive table, designed to go with the roasted bird.<br /><br />We usually do turkey; that's my aunty's department, but being Australian, serve it sliced cold. I wanted to add a bit of a kick to the traditional cranberry sauce.<br /><br />I was trying to find a locally grown subsitute for the cranberries, and the chillies and cheeries presented themselves to me at the local growers market. I thnk if you buy seconds you can save money, and i go for the very ripe ones, unlike your recipe, which calls for tart ones, because i liked the heavy colour & sugary syrupy quality they give. But i can see the merit of going for the less ripe ones. it makes sense.<br /><br />I really want to experiment with different birds too, i think that fruit & spice go hand in hand with white meats and i wonder if you might know of any "bush tucker" birds or have nay ideas that would give an Australian angle to the Christmas table?<br /><br />Since then I make it every year.<br /><br />I just googled chili cherry chutney to see if anyone else knows the joy of it ... it seems you do!<br /><br />I am thinking about adding some fresh green coriander seeds to this year's batch; as we have some corianders that have just bolted to seed in the garden, and the green seeds are like little bursting flavor-bombs.<br /><br />Cheers & merry 'mas.<br /><br />djembeh gemmagemmanoreply@blogger.com
