Method
1. Begin taking the red onions and removing the top and tail, cut them in half, remove the skins and slice.
2. Place a large saucepan over a medium to high heat. Add in the olive oil and then the sliced onions followed by a pinch of sea salt. Cook for 5 minutes stirring occasionally.
3. Next, add in the light brown sugar, balsamic vinegar, juice of two oranges and two strips of orange rind.
4. Leave whole but lightly crush two cloves of garlic and add them into the pan.
5. Gather together the cinnamon stick, cloves and star anise. Wrap them in a small piece of muslin cloth or I used a loose leaf tea infuser. Add them into the pan.
6. Next, finely grate the ginger using a Microplane and add it to the pan. Give everything a good mix and cook over low heat for roughly 45 minutes until the liquid had reduced and the chutney is a sticky, shiny, jam-like consistency. Remember to give it a stir every 5-10 minutes.
7. Store the chutney in a sterilised jar, in the fridge for up to 1 month. Find out how to sterilise a jar here.
