Ingredients

Nectarines (4, pitted and diced)
Apricots (4, pitted and diced)
Red onion (1 medium, finely chopped)
Garlic (2 cloves, minced)
Ginger (1 tablespoon, grated)
Apple cider vinegar (1 cup)
Brown sugar (1/2 cup)
Cinnamon (1/2 teaspoon)
Cloves (1/4 teaspoon, ground)
Salt (1/2 teaspoon)
Black pepper (1/4 teaspoon, freshly ground)

Instructions

In a large saucepan, combine diced nectarines, diced apricots, chopped red onion, minced garlic, grated ginger, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, cinnamon, cloves, salt, and black pepper.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally to ensure that the sugar dissolves.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. The chutney should thicken and the fruits will break down.
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the chutney to cool completely at room temperature.
Once cooled, transfer the chutney to sterilized jars, seal them, and refrigerate for at least 24 hours to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled or at room temperature with a selection of cheeses or grilled meats for a delightful culinary experience.
