Ingredients

Servings: 1
  • 1 Lemon
  • 3 Quinces (about 300 g each)
  • 4 Onions
  • 1 piece(s) (approx. 20 g) Ginger
  • 7-8 TABLESPOONS Oil
  • 125 g Sugar
  • 1⁄8 l Cider vinegar
  • 225 ml apple juice
  • 7-10 Tbsp salt, pepper
  • 4–5 Screw-top jars with lid (approx. 200 ml each)

Directions

  1. 1

    Squeeze the lemon. Pour about 400 ml water and lemon juice into a bowl. Prepare quinces. Cut into fine cubes and put them immediately into the lemon water. Peel and finely dice onions and ginger.

  2. 2

    Place the quinces in a sieve and drain. Heat the oil in a wide saucepan. Brown the onions and ginger in it. Add quinces and steam for 8-10 minutes. Sprinkle with sugar and caramelise slightly while stirring.

  3. 3

    Deglaze with vinegar and apple juice, bring to the boil. Simmer open at low to medium heat for about 40 minutes.

  4. 4

    Season quince chutney with salt and pepper. Pour immediately into prepared glasses. Close tightly and place on the lid for about 5 minutes. Turn over and let it cool down. Cheese tastes good with it (e.g.

  5. 5

    Cheddar and Camembert). But also goes well with duck breast and steak.
