Ingredients

Scale

Chutney Ingredients

  • 1 medium fresh pineapple, peeled, cored, and diced
  • 2–3 fresh jalapeños, seeded and minced (adjust for heat preference)
  • 1 small red onion, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon lime juice (for extra tanginess)

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a medium saucepan, add the diced pineapple, minced jalapeños, finely chopped red onion, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, ground ginger, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Stir everything together to evenly distribute the spices and flavors.
  2. Cook the Mixture: Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking and to allow the chutney to thicken and the flavors to meld.
  3. Add Lime Juice: If using lime juice, stir it into the chutney after cooking and before taking it off the heat. This adds an extra layer of bright, tangy flavor that complements the sweetness and spice.
  4. Cool and Store: Allow the chutney to cool completely at room temperature. Then transfer it into a sterilized jar and refrigerate. The chutney will continue to develop its flavor and can be stored for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of jalapeños to control the spiciness according to your preference.
  • Use a ripe pineapple for optimal sweetness and flavor balance.
  • Make sure to finely chop the onion and mince the jalapeños evenly for a consistent texture.
  • Store in a sterilized airtight jar to preserve freshness and extend shelf life.
  • This chutney pairs well with grilled meats, cheese boards, sandwiches, and as a topping for tacos.
