Our local paper had this recipe and I tried it. I really like it for a change from cranberry sauce. I can't substitute it for cranberry sauce in our house, but I'll serve it as well as cranberry sauce.

I used less curry and it was fine for us. I also made HALF the recipe.

CRANBERRY-PEAR CHUTNEY

1 pound fresh cranberries
4 pears, each weighing about 8-10 ounces
1 6-ounce red onion
1 cup apple cider
3/4 cup sugar
4 tablespoons honey
1 each cinnamon stick
2 tablespoons curry powder
1 pinch kosher salt

Seed and core the pears and cut into 1/2-inch dice. No need to skin them. Peel the red onion and slice off the top and the root ends. Chop the red onion into small dice; you'll have about 1 cup of chopped onion.

Put all the ingredients in a heavy-bottomed, non-reactive pan. Heat to simmer over medium-high heat. Let the ingredients simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. The chopped pear should be soft. If it's not, cook an additional 5 minutes more.

Remove the pan from the heat. Let the ingredients cool for 15 minutes. Pack the chutney in a plastic container with tight-fitting lid. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Yummmmmmmmmm, that sounds great!

Another thing that is great on pork roast is roasted garlic & onion jam from Stonewall Kitchens. I know you don't have it in the UK, but you could make up the same sort of mishmosh.

There's also some good recipes at the site.

I'm getting hungry!
