Seasonal courgette chutney
If you have a glut of courgettes this September, this chutney is the perfect solution! This recipe will make roughly 1.5kg, and is delicious with cold meats or to add seasonal flavour to a sandwich.
Instructions
- Put the courgettes into a colander and sprinkle with salt, leaving for 2 hours then rinse & pat dry
- Then add courgettes to a preserving pan with the remaining ingredients with the exception of the walnuts and heat gently, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Simmer until thickened & then add in the chopped walnuts.
- Pour into hot sterilised jars and seal.
