Caramelised onion chutney

 

Today's Foodie Friday vlog is up.  I had a surplus of onions that I wanted to use up so I decided to make some chutney with them.  I found an amazing recipe that had a slowcooker method so I decided to have a go.  I started by slicing up the onions the night before.  It took me half an hour!!!  And the whole house stank of raw onions until the next morning!🧅

I added butter, oil and bay leaves and set the slowcooker to low.  They simmered gently for 3 and a half hours.

Then I added the sugar, vinegar, salt and chilli flakes and set it to High (with the lid wedged open a little) for 7 hours in the end!

It was nice and sticky after simmering all day!  And the house smelled a bit nicer 😋


This is what 2kg of onions looks like after all that!!  The labels are leftovers from my Etsy shop days.

Ingredients:

  • 2kg of red or brown onions (before peeling)
  • 50ml oil
  • 50g butter
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 300g dark soft brown sugar
  • 200ml apple cider vinegar
  • 200ml Balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp chilli flakes
Method:

See HERE for the original recipe.  It has fab detailed instructions for both methods.
