📝 Preparation Steps
1
Wash the tomatoes under cool water. Remove and discard the stems and cores of the tomatoes.
2
Chop the tomatoes and measure out 4 cups.
3
Dice the red onion as finely as you prefer. This chutney is designed to be chunky, but if you prefer a smoother chutney, make the tomato and onion chunks smaller. Measure out 2 cups of diced onion.
red onion (diced)2 cups
4
Place the chopped tomatoes and onions in a large saucepan, and add 1 cup of raisins and 1 cup of sugar. Stir thoroughly to combine.

5
Allow the mixture to sit and macerate for ⏱️ 1 hour. This will help firm up the tomatoes and produce a chunkier finished chutney. If you prefer the chutney to be more saucy and soft, skip the ⏱️ 1 hour of macerating.
6
Add the red pepper flakes, ground ginger, cinnamon stick, and white vinegar to the tomato mixture and combine thoroughly.

7
Place the saucepan on the stove and cook over medium heat until the mixture thickens, approximately ⏱️ 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
8
Ladle or spoon the chutney into prepared jars, leaving ½" headspace.
9
Wipe the rims of the jars with a clean, damp cloth, and apply the 2-part canning lids until finger-tight.
10
Preserve the chutney using a hot water bath canning method. Process jars for ⏱️ 10 minutes for elevations less than 1000 feet, ⏱️ 15 minutes for elevations between 1000-6000 feet, and ⏱️ 20 minutes above 6000 feet in elevation.
