Spiced Apple Chutney

I find nice chutney can be quite expensive so I prefer to make my own as I go through quite a lot in the cafe. I mostly use it in Wensleydale cheese and chutney sandwiches, I highly recommend, also good toasted! 
Makes 6-8 jars

1 onion - peeled and chopped
3 large brambly apples - peeled and chopped
100g sultanas
350g granulated sugar
425ml malt vinegar
1tsp ground mixed spice 
1tsp ground coriander 
1tsp paprika
1tsp salt
Put all the ingredients into a preserving pan. Slowly bring to the boil until the sugar has dissolved.

Simmer for 1½-2 hours, stirring from time to time to stop the chutney sticking to the pan.

When it is very thick and you can draw a wooden spoon across the base of the pan so that it leaves a channel behind it that does not immediately fill with liquid, the chutney is ready.

Turn into sterilized jars, seal and cool.

Store in a cool, dark cupboard for two to three months before eating.
