I've made this one, it yields a smaller amount, tastes good.
900gm tamarillos (approx 10 fruit)
200gm granny smith or braeburn apple (1 large fruit)
100gm onion (1 small)
200gms of seeded raisins, chopped
1 cup of water
350gm brown sugar
250ml vinegar eg. (mixture of cider and balsamic)
2 tsps salt
good shakes of ground pepper, cayenne & cinnamon
Peel and slice the tamarillos, quarter, core, peel and chop the apple, finely dice the onion add chopped raisins together with all the remaining ingredients.
Bring to the boil, then lower the heat and simmer for about 1&1/2 hours till thick, stirring often. Sterilise the jars and lids while it is cooking. Spoon hot chutney into jars and close lids.
Apparently using white instead of brown sugar means the deep red colour of the fruit isn't lost during cooking, I have never done this. You can also freeze the tamarillos after peeling them to defer making the chutney.
