Prep Time: 30 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 tsp. minced onion
- 1 tsp. minced fresh ginger root
- 2 Tbsp. white wine vinegar
- ¼ tsp. red pepper flakes
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 2 tsp. brown sugar
- 1 cup pitted cherries
- 2 sage leaves, minced
Preparation:
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine onion, ginger, vinegar, red pepper flakes, salt, and brown sugar. Bring to a boil and add cherries. If you are using frozen cherries, defrost the cherries and drain liquid before using.
After adding cherries, turn heat to a low simmer and put the lid on the saucepan. Continue to simmer on low for five minutes to soften the cherries. Remove the lid and bring heat up to medium. Stir occasionally to prevent the liquid from burning. Simmer five minutes more, until the liquid thickens and the chutney has a jam-like consistency.
Remove from heat. Add minced sage. Cool to room temperature before serving.
