I have always been an enthusiastic fan of chutneys - what better accompaniment to a tasty cheese or ham than the concentrated flavours of preserved fruit and spices?
I made my first batch in 2008 after reading a recipe for Pineapple Chutney. I modified it significantly and it has become my favourite: Appley Pineappley Chutney.
These chutneys are made for pleasure, for sharing - if you have received one and are looking up the website, I trust you enjoy it!
A friend gave me her grandmother's book of chutney recipes and this inspired me to explore more, and I have since dabbled in several variants:
- Appley Pineappley Chutney - Pineapples are often £1 at Lidl (sometimes 85p!) and I just cannot resist this old favourite, which goes so well with many things, but especially ham.
- Plummey Chutney - We have several family, friends and neighbours with victoria plums. These make a wonderful, rich, sweet chutney that goes well with cheeses and ham. In 2013 I made a variant with brambles called 'Brummel Plum' and it was delicious - lovely colour and rich!
- Plum'n'Beetie - a variation on the plum with an equal measure of beetroot.
- Appley Figgy Chutney - We have access to a number of apple trees and in late autumn there is often some fruit spare, and makes a mild but flavoursome chutney that accompanies any cooked dish, or soft cheeses like brie and Cambazola.
- Sweet Tomato Chutney - who doesn't love tomato chutney?! There are two tricky aspects that prevent me making it often: blanching & sticking to the pan. I have mastered the blanching and actually enjoy this, but haven't worked out how to prevent the sticking, other than stirring constantly which slows the process down and means I cannot sterilise jars and do other things...
- Coull Tomato Chutney - an attempt to replicate a favourite of the Coull's, this chutney includes fennel and carraway seeds.
- Pommie Pineapple - after watching the kids eating pommegrante seeds, I thought how great they would look in a chutney... this light-coloured version highlights the bright pommegrante seeds and has all the flavour of the pineapple.
- Merry Cranberry Chutney - largely based on BBC Good Food's recipe, this is a real treat to accompany the turkey at Christmas.
Enjoy, and thanks for looking up the page!

BPN Waste Bins
Wondering about those orange bins? Maybe you're already scanned the QR code and found out... We just thought it's such a great path network and a shame when there is litter and dog waste bags lying around... and also as dog walkers ourselves we know how unpleasant it is to carry a bag back for a mile... or two!
So, we've installed 37 bins - see the handy map below! Many of these have been suggestions from the community. Thanks to the Rotary Club who gave a generous donation towards the purchase of the bins.
When you scan the code, a team of around a dozen volunteers get an email, and we empty soon after.
