Damson Chutney

At the weekend I made damson chutney following the excellent recipe from Fiona @ The Cottage Smallholder.

Here are the ingredients in the pan before the four hour simmer!

This damson chutney looks delicious - my thanks go to my mother in law and my friends Cherie & Neil for providing the damsons and Fiona for the recipe. I can’t wait to tuck in. It was Neil’s birthday the other day so I gave him a jar for his birthday and he said it tasted delicious. So don’t delay try this recipe today.

  1. Hi Sara,

    That looks delicious.

    I enjoy reading about the variety of topics in your blog. The apple post made me think about how much I love apples. I think I’ll eat one now. I’m serious as I have several waiting in my kitchen.

    Take care, Carver

  3. I love the colour of the Damson Chutney. I would make it just to be able to look at it, although I know I would tuck into quickly. It looks delicious too!!

  5. So pleased that you had a go at this recipe, Sara. We usually make ours with wild plums. I designed the recipe to include spices that most people would already have in their larder and wouldn’t need a special trip to the shops.

  6. Hi Fiona,
    Your recipe was easy to follow and was a pleasure to do, especially when the kitchen started to smell of the wonderful chutney. The colour is amazing. I am going to serve this with pheasant.Thanks for sharing the recipe.
