Uses for chutney?
Diggernotdreamer's post using up mincemeat by adding it to the scone recipe set me wondering.
I've lots of jam and chutney to use up and I've already given a lot away. It isn't hard hard to use up jam, ice cream sauce & top of sponge puddings come to mind. But chutney? There's a limit to how many ploughmans you can eat! Any ideas?

Re: Uses for chutney?
I would agree with that, I don't like it much, but if I have been given it I use it to add a bit of something else to curry or casseroles, the vinegar in it is also a useful tenderiser for cheaper cuts of meat for stew

Blitz it up and add it to tomato ketchup to make a lovely fruity brown sauce.

on pizza in the tomato sauce works well too.

It adds a tangy, rich layer under the cheese on melted cheese on toast.

I like a bit stirred into red cabbage (cooked), as a side vegetable.
