CARAMELIZED ONION AND APPLE CHUTNEY



Caramelized Onion and Apple Chutney image

I had grilled some thick pork chops one Fall day and wanted an onion and apple chutney to serve with the chops. After much searching for just the right recipe and coming up empty-handed, I created this recipe completely off the top of my head. The results were so delicious that my wife demanded I write down exactly what I had done so I could do it again. This chutney is the perfect balance of tart and sweet and is brimming over with rich, delicious flavor. I strongly suggest using a 12 to 14-inch stainless steel skillet with a lid if you have one. Around here, the raisins and caraway or celery seed are optional as the wife doesn't care for them as much as I do, but IMO, they only make it better. I hope you like this stuff as much as we do. Yield is more a guess than a certainty.

Time 10m

Yield 5 cups

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 large yellow onions, roughly chopped
2 large granny smith apples, peeled, cored, and cut into medium cubes
3/4 cup apple cider vinegar (I strongly suggest using the Heinz brand)
1/2 cup light brown sugar
3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon mustard powder
1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds (optional) or 1/2 teaspoon celery seed (optional)
1/2 cup dark seedless raisins (optional) or 1/2 cup golden seedless raisins (optional)
kosher salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • In a 12-inch (or larger) skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the oil, and when hot, add the onions to the skillet, along with a pinch or two of kosher salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook, stirring often, for about 10 minutes, then lower the heat to medium and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions turn a rich golden brown, or about another 30 to 40 minutes. Do not rush this process as you do not want any onions to burn or dry out.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the vinegar, brown sugar, mustard, celery or caraway seed (if using), and pure maple syrup along with more salt and pepper; set aside.
  • When the onions are ready, raise the heat to medium-high again and add the apples. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes, or until the apples just begin to soften. Add the vinegar mixture and deglaze the pan by scraping the bottom. If you're using a nonstick skillet, there will be nothing to deglaze. Stir in the raisins (if using) and cover the skillet, lower the heat to medium-low, and let simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the apples are soft. Remove the lid and raise the heat back to medium-high. Cook the mixture, stirring often, until the liquid in the pan thickens enough that you can drag a spoon across the bottom and the liquid flows slowly back in, or is syrupy. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
  • This stuff is delicious and goes well with grilled or roasted pork.

Make and share this Caramelized Onion and Apple Chutney recipe from Food.com.

Provided by dicentra

Categories     Chutneys

Time 45m

Yield 3 pints

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 large red onions
3 apples
4 garlic cloves
3 cups golden balsamic vinegar
3 cups brown sugar
3 bay leaves
20 crushed peppercorns
1 teaspoon clove

Steps:

  • Chop the onions as fine as you like and cook them in a little oil until they're soft. Add them, along with everything else, to your big, nonreactive, heavy-bottomed cooking pot. Bring the mixture to a boil and then down to a simmer. Continue to simmer until the onions are translucent and the liquid has nearly evaporated. This may take as long as two hours.
  • I learned a neat trick for determining whether your chutney is done. It comes from Thane Prince's, Jellies, Jams & Chutneys. (I seem to be fully on-board with the Brits for this recipe.) Drag a wooden spoon through the mixture, across the bottom of the pan. If it leaves a clear path, with only a little liquid running back, you're all set.
  • When jarring this recipe, you'll notice lots and lots of air bubbles. I worked around the sides with my little spatula to release them. I allowed 1/2 inch of head space and processed 15 minutes. Yielded six half-pints.

3/4 cup dark rum
1 cup apple butter
2 tablespoons Garam Massala (available in Asian stores)

Apple and onion chutney is a delicious condiment that offers a perfect blend of sweet and savory flavors. It is a great accompaniment to dishes like grilled meats, cheese boards, sandwiches, and burgers. The chutney is prepared by simmering apples, onions, vinegar, sugar, and spices until they form a thick, sticky sauce. In this article, we will delve deeper into apple and onion chutney recipes and why they make such a great addition to any meal.

The Ingredients

The key ingredients for apple and onion chutney are apples, onions, vinegar, sugar, and spices. The apples and onions should be sliced thinly for even cooking. Any type of apple can be used for the recipe, but more tart apples like Granny Smith work best. The onions can be white, yellow, or red, depending on personal preference. For the vinegar, cider vinegar is the most commonly used, but other types like white wine vinegar or balsamic vinegar can be used as well. Sugar is used to sweeten the chutney, and brown sugar works well for its molasses flavor. The spices used in the chutney can vary widely, but commonly used spices include cinnamon, allspice, ginger, and cloves.

The Preparation

Making apple and onion chutney is a relatively easy process. First, the apples and onions are sliced thinly and added to a large pot with the sugar, vinegar, and spices. The mixture is then brought to a boil and then allowed to simmer for about an hour. It is essential to stir the mixture regularly to avoid it sticking to the bottom of the pot. As the mixture simmers, the apples and onions will begin to break down, and the sugar will caramelize, resulting in a thick sauce.

The Texture

The texture of apple and onion chutney is thick and slightly chunky. As the apples and onions cook down, they will release their juices, creating a syrupy texture. The texture can vary depending on personal preference, and some people prefer a smoother chutney. In this case, the mixture can be blended in a food processor or blender to create a smoother consistency.

The Taste

Apple and onion chutney is a versatile condiment that has a unique flavor profile. The sweetness of the apples and sugar is balanced by the tanginess of the vinegar, while the spices provide a warm, earthy flavor. The combination of the sweet and savory flavors makes it an excellent accompaniment to a wide range of dishes. The chutney can be adjusted to personal preference with more or less sugar or spices, depending on the desired flavor.

Variations

There are several variations of apple and onion chutney, depending on personal preference and intended usage. Some variations include adding additional ingredients like raisins or dried cranberries for added sweetness or chili peppers for a spicy kick. For a sweeter chutney, honey can be substituted for the sugar. Additionally, some people prefer to use a mix of apples and pears or a combination of red and white onions for a more complex flavor.

Conclusion

In conclusion, apple and onion chutney is a delicious, versatile condiment that can be made at home with just a few simple ingredients. It is perfect for adding a sweet and savory flavor to grilled meats, cheese boards, sandwiches, and burgers. The thick, chunky texture, and unique flavor profile make it a popular choice among food enthusiasts. Whether you prefer a sweeter or spicier chutney, apple and onion chutney recipes can be easily adjusted to personal preference, making it a great addition to any meal.

If you are planning to make apple and onion chutney at home, the following tips can help you create a delicious and flavorful batch:
1. Choose the Right Apples and Onions
Apple and Onion Chutney typically requires a large number of apples and onions, so it's essential to choose the right type of produce. For apples, you want to select a variety that has a balance of sweet and tart flavors, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn. Onions can be any variety, but white or yellow onions tend to work well. It's important to note that the size and ripeness of the produce can also affect the taste and texture of the chutney.
2. Cut the Apples and Onions into Consistent Pieces
To ensure that the apples and onions cook evenly, it's important to cut them into consistent pieces. For the apples, remove the core and slice them into small, bite-sized pieces. For the onions, peel them and slice them into thin rings or finely chop them. The size and shape of the pieces can affect the texture of the chutney, so choose the size that works best for your preferences.
3. Use the Right Spices and Seasonings
One of the key components of a delicious apple and onion chutney is the spices and seasonings used to flavor the mixture. Cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger, and allspice are common spices used in chutney recipes. Other seasonings such as brown sugar, honey, vinegar, and salt can add additional depth of flavor. Experiment with different combinations to find the perfect balance of sweet, savory, and spicy flavors.
4. Cook the Chutney Slowly Over Low Heat
To develop the flavors and create a smooth texture, it's best to cook the chutney slowly over low heat. This allows the ingredients to blend together and intensify the flavors. Some chutney recipes may require up to two hours of cooking time. It's important to keep an eye on the mixture, stirring occasionally to prevent burning or sticking to the bottom of the pot.
5. Store the Chutney Properly
Once the chutney is cooked, it's important to store it properly to ensure its freshness and flavor. It can be kept in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. For longer storage, the chutney can be canned or preserved using a water bath canning method. It's important to follow safe canning practices and guidelines to avoid any risk of spoilage or contamination.
6. Customize the Recipe to your Preferences
Apple and Onion Chutney recipes can be customized to your preferences, allowing you to experiment with different combinations of ingredients and spices. You can add other fruits, such as cranberries, raisins, or pears, for additional sweetness or tartness. You can also adjust the amount of spices or seasonings to create a milder or spicier flavor. The possibilities are endless, so have fun and create a recipe that works best for you.

Conclusion

In conclusion, apple and onion chutney is an excellent condiment that can be used to enhance many dishes. The key to making a delicious chutney is to choose the right type of produce, cut it consistently, use the right spices and seasonings, cook it slowly over low heat, store it properly, and customize the recipe to your preferences.
