2. Add Ingredients: Once the sugar has melted, add the chopped apples, finely chopped ginger, minced garlic, cayenne pepper, salt, and craisins to the saucepan.

3. Bring to a Boil: Increase the heat to high and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan, and let it simmer gently.

4. Simmer: Allow the mixture to simmer for approximately 3 to 4 hours, stirring occasionally. The chutney should darken in color and achieve a thick, jam-like consistency.

5. Remove Chili Bag: If you’ve used a chili bag, remove it after 30 minutes of simmering to avoid making the chutney too spicy.

6. Sterilize Jars: While the chutney is simmering, sterilize your jars and lids by boiling them in a large pot of water for 10 minutes. Remove them with sanitized tongs and let them air dry.

7. Jar and Seal: Once the chutney has reached your desired consistency, carefully ladle it into the sterilized jars, leaving about 1/4 inch of space at the top. Wipe the rims of the jars with a clean, damp cloth to remove any residue. Place the lids on the jars and tighten them securely.

8. Cool and Store: Allow the jars of chutney to cool completely at room temperature before storing them in a cool, dark place. Properly sealed jars can be stored for up to a year.

9. Enjoy: Bergie’s Colonel Grey’s Chutney is perfect for adding flavor to a variety of dishes, from curries to sandwiches. Enjoy its sweet and tangy goodness!
