LEMON CHUTNEY
A lovely chutney adapted from a recipe found on www.Nigella.com. Plan to make this winter when the new citrus is in. Will make the house smell so good & be nice in Christmas baskets. Prep time does not include overnight soak of thinly sliced lemons, onions & raisins in spiced vinegar (told you the house would smell good!)

[email protected]This chutney is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still pretty good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
