Units
Scale
- 500 g mini tomatoes (they’re the stars here!)
- 2-3 cloves of garlic, peeled
- 5-10 ml chili flakes (adjust for your spice level)
- 100 ml white vinegar
- 250-300 ml caster sugar (sweetness to balance the heat)
- 2.5 ml salt (a pinch of magic)
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients to a pot.
- Keep the heat low at first, letting the sugar melt and mix gently.
- Once everything’s dissolved and looking good, bring it to a boil.
- When it’s bubbling, turn the heat down and let it simmer.
- You want it to thicken to a sticky, rich consistency that clings to your spoon like a promise.
- Carefully spoon your chutney into a sterilized jar while it’s still warm.
- Place it in the fridge, and it’s ready to join your cheese boards, boerewors, cold meats, or anything else you’re craving.
