Once again, I have to give Taste of Home credit for this recipe. I have made a slight alteration to suit my likes. I cooked this for the first time last night to take to a Thanksgiving meal we had at work. I have already had to give the recipe to others. It has a wonderful tart/sweet flavor and it is just as good served over dressing as it is served over meat.

SWEET AND SPICY CRANBERRY CHUTNEY



Sweet and Spicy Cranberry Chutney image

This is by far the best cranberry dish of any type that I've ever tasted. It was passed on to me from my mother-in-law. The garlic adds a hint of savoriness and the fresh ginger gives it a spicy kick. A very easy recipe with a sophisticated flavor. I could not find another cranberry chutney recipe exactly like it anywhere on the web, so I am sharing it here! The flavor gets better the longer it sits, so making it a day or two ahead is preferable.

THE BEST CRANBERRY CHUTNEY



The Best Cranberry Chutney image

I know there's a thousand cranberry chutney recipe's out there, but this one is truly the best! Best if made a day in advance to really let the flavors meld. I never really measure the spices either, so I am guessing about 1/2 tsp. of each. Taste the cranberries after letting them set for awhile and re-season if necessary. Prep time does not include refrigeration time. Enjoy! UPDATE: When I posted the original recipe I forgot about the sugar you need in the water for the cranberries. Thank you to Chef Sydney Mike for pointing out my error!

GARLICKY CRANBERRY CHUTNEY



Garlicky Cranberry Chutney image

I think this came from the L.A. Times. It makes a nice change from the traditional cranberry-orange relish. Though this is called a chutney, I've characterized it as 'Western U.S.' cuisine rather than Indian. It strikes me as sort of 'West-Coast Fusion', in the spirit of ringing all kinds of changes on the traditional American holiday foods. Also, I don't think cranberries are very typical of the subcontinent. But it would probably be fun to serve it with a chicken or turkey curry.
