I've made this one http://www.allotment-garden.org/recipe/80/recipe-for-green-bean-pickle/
Looks rather strange but tastes wonderful!

I can vouch for Val's recipe - made some last year and it was delish

Not that Val's recipes need anyone to vouch for them of course  :lol: :lol: :lol:

Made half quantity last night.  Never seen anything that looked so revolting but tasted so good.  I did cut down the sugar content.  I can imagine this with cold meats or cheese and nice fresh bread.

I've come to the conclusion that apart from a few basic essentials you can chutney anything in the fruit and veg line.

I made this the other day, and can't stop eating it! Glad I planted far too many runner plants this year!  :happy:

Sounds about right :lol: :lol: :lol:. I often "adjust" recipes to use up what's hanging about.

I'll admit now I did that with the green bean chutney I made last night.  Plenty of beans, not enough onions so I threw in a Bramley.  Then decided that I had better get rid of a courgette.  Didn't have dark brown sugar so used light with a spoonful of black treacle.  Makes for an interesting outcome. ::)

I'm making our second batch of the runner bean chutney from this site, think I'm addicted to it. Half way through my second jar in less than a week, have been planning my meals and snaks around it! Warm pitta and cheese, on cheese scones, on toast with homemade veg soup/stew, with left overs  :D might have to branch out into different veg's, some really good ideas here, thanks

Ive just made a half batch but i didn't have any mustard of cardamom, so used paprika and Cayenne pepper( not much) instead, it tastes excellent.

A quick question

in the instructions it says leave to cool before putting the lids on, but im a bit wary of this having ruined my first batch of jam this way. so i did as i would with jam and potted and lidded straight out of the pan. Will this cause a problem?

This recipe was off a forum member, not one of mine. When I've made it I always put the lids on whilst it is hot, as I do for all chutneys.

I used this recipe and I think I queried the 'leave to cool' instruction and was advised that it's better to lid while still hot, which I did.
