A first for me

Yesterday's chapter was headed "A pot of chutney"

I have never made chutney - put off I suppose by a family member who makes masses of it, distributes it very generously , and its vile!!!!!!

Yesterday I made A dark and sticky fruit chutney. The main ingredient being figs. I found it very difficult not to eat the beautifully fresh ripe figs before adding them to the chutney, I adore figs.

I was a little worried as at first my chutney did not seem to be getting thick and jam like, but eventually it did - taking a good bit longer than Mr Slater said it should. 

The result is wonderful, quite surprised myself, this is a delicious chutney and definitely too good to give away!!!!!
