Apple Chutney

Ingredients:

1 cup brown sugar
1 cup cider vinegar
3 crisp Apples, peeled, cored and rough diced
1 large sweet onion, rough diced
1 lemon (trim the ends, cut in half crosswise, seed and dice)
1 jalapeno, diced
1 cup raisins
1/4 cup candied ginger, diced
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp whole mustard seed
1/2 tsp cloves
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp kosher salt

Preparation:

In a medium stainless steel sauce pan combine all ingredients and mix well. Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Lower the heat and simmer until all fruit is stewed but still firm. Remove from the heat ---- cool then refrigerate. The flavor improves if it is allowed to stand for a few days before serving.
