Steps:
- Put the chopped garlic, ginger and 1/2 cup of the vinegar into the container of an electric blender and blend at high speed until smooth.
- In a 4-quart, heavy-bottomed pot with non-metallic finish, place the tomatoes and juice from the can, the rest of the vinegar, the sugar, salt and cayenne pepper (or, if you prefer, add the cayenne at the end, a little at a time, stirring and tasting as you do so).
- Bring to a boil.
- Add puree from blender.
- Lower heat and simmer gently, uncovered, for about 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until chutney becomes thick.
- (A film should cling to a spoon dipped in it.) Stir occasionally at first, and more frequently later as it thickens.
- You may need to lower the heat as the liquid diminishes.
- You should end up with 2 1/2 cups of chutney, and it should be atleast as thick as honey after it cools.
- If the canned tomatoes you used have a lot of liquid in them, a longer cooking time may be required, resulting in a little less chutney.
- Add the almonds and the raisins.
- Simmer, stirring, another 5 minutes.
- Turn heat off and allow to cool.
- Bottle.
- Keep refrigerated.
