INGREDIENTS:
6 cups ground cherries, husked and rinsed
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup water
1 cup apple cider vinegar
2 cups onion, chopped
1 cup red bell pepper, chopped
1 cup golden raisins
1 tablespoon coriander
1 tablespoon mustard seed
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1-2 teaspoon(s) red pepper flakes, depending on how much heat you like
1 teaspoon salt (or more, to taste)
METHOD:
In a heavy saucepan, combine sugar and water, and slowly bring to a boil, stirring. Add vinegar, onions, pepper, raisins, coriander seed, mustard seed, ground cloves, and red pepper flakes. Cook until onions and peppers are soft. Add ground cherries, and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer and cook until most of the cherries have burst and the mixture has thickened.
Remove from heat. Allow to cool and store in a glass jar in the refrigerator. Or, pour chutney into sterilized jars, top with lids, and process in a hot water bath for 10 minutes.
