East India Apple Chutney

From my collection of chutney's. I have a collection that contains 1,457 chutney recipes that I collected over the years. I love to make chutney and give as gifts. I always tripe this recipe. This is one of my favorites. Date and source unknown, but I have been making this for at least 25 years so I know it dates back to at least the early 80's.
