3. To make the chutney, heat the olive oil in a large pan and add the red onions, then cook for 10 minutes until softened, stirring occasionally.
4. Stir in the apple, figs, balsamic vinegar, grape juice, sugar and thyme until well combined.
5. Cook for about 10 minutes until slightly reduced and thickened, stirring occasionally.
