Caramelised Onion Chutney

Ingredients

• 1.5 kg red onions
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 red chilli ((seeds removed if preferred))
• 2 bay leaves
• 200 g light brown sugar
• 200 ml balsamic vinegar
• 200 ml red wine vinegar

Instructions

1. 1

   Peel and thinly slice the onions. The easiest way to do this is by using the slicing attachment on a food processor

2. 2

   Add the oil and finely sliced chilli to a large pan over a medium high heat and add all of the onions. Stir and cook for a few minutes until softened but not coloured

3. 3

   Add the sugar, balsamic vinegar, red wine vinegar and bay leaves and stir to combine

4. 4

   Turn to a low heat and cook so it is barely bubbling for two hours, stirring occasionally to make sure it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan

5. 5

   Once the chutney is thick and glossy, remove the bay leaves and spoon into sterilised jars. Store somewhere dark for up to six months
