Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, combine the chopped green tomatoes, cauliflower, onions, brown sugar, and 3 cups of distilled white vinegar. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low, stirring frequently until the sugar is completely dissolved. (5-10 minutes)

03

Step

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, ground turmeric, dry mustard powder, curry powder, ground nutmeg, ground cloves, and ground ginger. Gradually whisk in the remaining 1 cup of distilled white vinegar to form a smooth, thin paste.

04

Step

Slowly pour the spice paste into the simmering tomato mixture, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Continue to cook and stir the chutney until it thickens to your desired consistency. (15-20 minutes)

06

Step

Once thickened, reduce the heat to low and simmer for an additional 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

07

Step

Remove the pot from the heat and allow the chutney to cool completely before transferring it to sterilized jars or airtight containers. Store in the refrigerator.

For a smoother chutney, use an immersion blender to partially blend the mixture after it has thickened.
Adjust the amount of sugar to your taste, depending on the tartness of the green tomatoes.
Sterilize jars and lids by boiling them in water for 10 minutes prior to filling for longer storage in the pantry. Once opened, refrigerate.
Feel free to add other spices like a pinch of cayenne pepper for a touch of heat or some chopped fresh ginger for a brighter flavor.
The chutney will thicken further as it cools.
