1 onion finely chopped,
500ml white wine vinegar,
500ml Sugar,
500g Dried fruit (soaked in 100ml strong rooibos tea)
1 cinnamon stick,
1 star anise,
salt and pepper,
50g fresh mint (ek het nie die mint ingesit nie, het we’ll bietjie chilli ingesit).
Bring the vinegar, sugar, cinnamon, star anise and onion to the boil and cook to a honey like syrup consistency. Cut the dried fruit into smaller pieces. Remove the cinnamon and star anise, add the dried fruit pieces as well as the rooibos tea. Cook Chutney further till it reaches the right consistency, then season with salt and pepper.
