1 ½ cups apple cider vinegar

¼ teaspoon chilli powder

½teaspoon ground cumin

½teaspoon ground coriander 1 teaspoon mustard powder Salt and pepper, to taste

2.Season well with salt and pepper. Pour chutney into hot sterilised glass jars and seal with preserving or plastic lids.

Note:

To peel tomatoes: use a sharp knife to remove the stem and place a small cross on the base of the tomato. Place in boiling water for 1 minute or until the skin just begins to peel away. Immediately remove from the boiling water and place in a bowl of ice cold water. You will then be able to easily pull the skin off with your fingers.

To sterilise jars: place clean, glass jars without any chips or cracks in a large saucepan and cover with cold water. Cover with lid and bring to boil. Boil for 20 minutes. Carefully remove the jars and stand upright on a heat-proof board. Allow to air dry.
