Banana & Ginger Chutney recipe, eat well on universal credit

Due to a very odd stocking issue at the Co-Op where I collect I’ve had a vast amount of Bananas to move around over the last couple of days. Some were too bashed up to pass on, so we made a Chutney and it’s very good!

When life gives you Lemons - No cancel that - When life gives you Bananas…..

Ingredients:-

900g of Bananas, chopped
500g of Dates, chopped
1 Large Onion, diced
2 Lemons, Juice & Zest
40g of Ginger, grated
1 Red Chili, finely chopped
200g of Brown Sugar
500ml of Distilled Vinegar
1 Tsp of Hot Curry Powder
1 Tsp of Tamarind Paste

Method:-

(1) Place all the ingredients in a large pan and stir over a medium heat until the Sugar dissolves.
(2) Increase the heat to bring to the boil.
(3) Reduce the heat and allow to simmer for 40 minutes stirring occasionally.
(4) Allow to cool and then spoon into sterilized jars.

According to the recipe we are supposed to allow this to mature for 4 weeks. Some of it might make it, maybe…….

We actually had so many Bananas to deal with that we doubled the quantities!
