Spent Rhubarb Chutney



After making my Rhubarb Gin, I was left with a quantity of spent fruit that I was loathe to waste. After all, it had just spent two months in gin and sugar - it had so much more to offer!

This chutney was a bit of an experiment, but worked an absolute treat. It's heavenly with cheese, in sandwiches, as a condiment with pork or duck, or added into a casserole for a naughty tang.

Ingredients
500g spent rhubarb
200g soft brown sugar
3 onions, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, chopped
100g tomatoes, chopped
200ml red wine vinegar
1 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp ground ginger
½ tsp ground cinnamon

Method

  1. Place all of the ingredients in a large pan and slowly bring to the boil, stirring occasionally. 
  2. Simmer for about two hours, stirring frequently, until the chutney is thick.
  3. Allow to cool and then portion into sterilised jars.
  4. Keep refrigerated - it should keep for months.
