Green Tomato Chutney

Ingredients

 * 12 ounces green tomatoes or tomatillos, chopped
 * 2 large onions, chopped
 * 1 teaspoon salt
 * 2 cups apple cider vinegar
 * 3 cups sugar
 * 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
 * 1 teaspoon cinnamon
 * ½ teaspoon ground cloves
 * 1 chili pepper, sliced, to your taste

Directions

 * 1) Place the chopped vegetables in a large pot.
 * 2) Add the Sugar, vinegar, salt and spices. Stir well.
 * 3) Heat the mixture, stirring, until the Sugar has just about melted, then bring to the boil.
 * 4) Stir well, reduce heat a little, and simmer, uncovered, until the mixture is thick. This will take about an hour. Towards the end of cooking, add the chilli.
 * 5) If your chutney doesn't thicken as it should, drain off the extra liquid. (This could all depend on the type of tomato).
 * 6) Cool, then refrigerate. The chutney will thicken as it cools. Presumably it will freeze okay.
 * 7) I would pour the mixture into hot, sterilised bottles and seal them.
