TO PREPARE

  1. Place a small dish into the freezer.
  2. Combine all ingredients in a medium pot adding 2 ½ cups of water then bring to a boil.
  3. Once the water comes to a boil, continue boiling for 2 minutes then decrease heat to a low simmer for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. After 45 minutes, remove dish from freezer and place 1 teaspoon of chutney on the plate, return to freezer for 5 minutes.

TO SERVE

Citrus Chutney brightens meats, poultry, or cheeses.

  • Meat & Poultry Condiment: Place a spoonful on top of roasted or grilled lamb, chicken, or pork. The citrus perfectly accents the juicy fats of the meats.
  • Appetizer: Bake Brie cheese until soft. Spread Citrus Chutney on a piece of toast, add a slice of soft warm Brie cheese. Yum!!!
  • Cheese plate: Select your favorite assortment of cheeses- we love the combination of Jarlsberg, Parmigiano Reggiano, and aged goat. Arrange cheese on a wooden platter and add condiments either directly on platter or in small bowls: Citrus Chutney, Lavender Honey Almonds, Spiced Olives. Elegant. Tasty!
