This recipe for Orange Chutney is delightful. Pleasant to the eye and the texture is wonderful. Comment below "Disappointing" could only be because ALL the white membrane of the outer orange and in the middle between pieces was not removed. Very Important because that is very bitter. Remember it is one of the ingredient that you can use to make pectin from. It does take a long time to do that properly but a must. I added Chili because I'm a fan. 1 Habanero to 2 batches temperature Medium to Hot depending on your taste. Harka July 2018

I love the orange overtones in this one, a nice change from the ever present tomato in so many chutney recipes. I originally found this identical recipe in 2002 posted on the recipesource.com website where the poster indicated the source to be the John Ash Show #JA9775. John Ash who is a chef and cookbook author has had a long running radio podcast.

I tagged this in Photo Tag because I thought it sounded interesting and I hoped someone around here would like it. I love it! I reduced it to 1 pint and it was so very easy to make. I can see that it would make a great gift. I didn't use red pepper flakes because we are out and it was just spicy enough for me. But spicy-lovers would probably want to add more.
