Spiced Plum And Fig Chutney

• 250 grams De-stoned and chopped plums
• 250 grams Chopped fresh figs
• 120 grams Raisins
• 3 clove Garlic
• 1 tbsp Grated fresh ginger
• 2 medium size red onion
• 150 grams Demerara sugar
• 200 ml Vinegar
• 1 tsp Allspice
• 1/2 Cinnamon stick
• 1 pinch Red chilli flakes
• 1 Bay leaf
• 1/2 tsp Each salt and black pepper

1. Very finely chop the onion, add to a heavy base saucepan with a dash of olive oil and cook for 5 minutes to soften the onion, don't burn it!
2. Add the garlic, ginger and chilli, cook for further 5 minutes stirring so as not to burn the garlic or onion.
3. Add all other ingredients to the pan, bring to a simmer and cook for 30-40 minutes, stirring frequently so it dosnt stick to the bottom.
4. Taste it a few times during cooking and adjust to your own taste, mine was a bit sweet initially but a few more drops of vinegar and a pinch of pepper made it perfect.
5. When cooled, add to jars and refriderate.
6. Should keep for about 4 weeks.
