Best 7 Caramelized Onion And Apple Chutney Recipes

APPLE CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Combine the apples, onion, ginger, orange juice, vinegar, brown sugar, mustard seeds, pepper flakes and salt and in a large saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat to simmer and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, for 50 minutes to 1 hour, until most of the liquid has evaporated. Take off the heat and add the raisins.
• Set aside to cool and store covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

CAMEMBERT-CARAMELIZED ONION QUESADILLA WITH APPLE CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to medium. Heat the oil and butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the onions and slowly cook until caramelized, about 45 minutes. Then stir in the balsamic vinegar and thyme. Let cool slightly before using in quesadilla.
• Place 6 quesadillas on a flat surface and divide the cheese and onions among the tortillas. Season filling with salt and pepper. Stack the tortillas to make 3 (2-layer) tortillas, and top with the remaining tortillas. Brush the tops with oil and grill, oiled-side down, until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the quesadillas, close the cover, and grill until the cheese has melted, about 5 minutes. Slice into quarters, and place 3 quarters on each of 4 plates. Top with a dollop of the apple chutney and a sprig of fresh thyme.
• Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion, ginger, garlic, and jalapeno, and cook until soft. Add half of the apples, the apple juice and vinegar, and cook until the apples are soft. Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining apples and the thyme. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer to a bowl and let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving so that flavors meld.

CARAMELIZED ONION AND APPLE CHUTNEY

Steps:

• In a 12-inch (or larger) skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the oil, and when hot, add the onions to the skillet, along with a pinch or two of kosher salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook, stirring often, for about 10 minutes, then lower the heat to medium and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions turn a rich golden brown, or about another 30 to 40 minutes. Do not rush this process as you do not want any onions to burn or dry out.
• Meanwhile, in a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the vinegar, brown sugar, mustard, celery or caraway seed (if using), and pure maple syrup along with more salt and pepper; set aside.
• When the onions are ready, raise the heat to medium-high again and add the apples. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes, or until the apples just begin to soften. Add the vinegar mixture and deglaze the pan by scraping the bottom. If you're using a nonstick skillet, there will be nothing to deglaze. Stir in the raisins (if using) and cover the skillet, lower the heat to medium-low, and let simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the apples are soft. Remove the lid and raise the heat back to medium-high. Cook the mixture, stirring often, until the liquid in the pan thickens enough that you can drag a spoon across the bottom and the liquid flows slowly back in, or is syrupy. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
• This stuff is delicious and goes well with grilled or roasted pork.

CARAMELIZED ONION AND APPLE CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Chop the onions as fine as you like and cook them in a little oil until they're soft. Add them, along with everything else, to your big, nonreactive, heavy-bottomed cooking pot. Bring the mixture to a boil and then down to a simmer. Continue to simmer until the onions are translucent and the liquid has nearly evaporated. This may take as long as two hours.
• I learned a neat trick for determining whether your chutney is done. It comes from Thane Prince's, Jellies, Jams & Chutneys. (I seem to be fully on-board with the Brits for this recipe.) Drag a wooden spoon through the mixture, across the bottom of the pan. If it leaves a clear path, with only a little liquid running back, you're all set.
• When jarring this recipe, you'll notice lots and lots of air bubbles. I worked around the sides with my little spatula to release them. I allowed 1/2 inch of head space and processed 15 minutes. Yielded six half-pints.

VIDALIA ONION AND GRANNY SMITH APPLE CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Place all ingredients in large pot and allow to cook down for 1 to 1 1/2 hours until most liquid evaporates. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Store covered in the refrigerator.

RED ONION CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Place the onions and sugar in a saucepan, cover and cook over medium heat until soft, about 10 mins. Pour in the red wine vinegar and red wine, then simmer uncovered until the liquid has reduced and the mixture is sticky, about 10 mins more. Add the grenadine syrup and mix well. Leave to cool, then transfer to a sterilised jar and seal.

CARAMELIZED APPLES AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Heat half the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add the apples and then one stem of thyme and one bay leaf. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are golden brown but not mushy, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and throw away the thyme and bay leaf.
• In another skillet over medium-high heat, add the remaining olive oil, the butter and the onions, then the remaining thyme and bay leaf. Season with salt and pepper. Reduce heat to medium low and cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are soft and golden brown, 20 to 30 minutes. Remove from heat and throw away the thyme and bay leaf.
• To serve, warm the apples and onions over medium-high heat and spoon them around the pork chops on a warmed platter.
