I was thinking about what to get all those random people that I ought to get a Christmas present, but I don't know what to give them. Then it hit me. Homemade hampers. This is the lovely chutney I made. I used Mary Berry's Christmas Chutney recipe, which you can find on good food as it came highly recommended.
The chutney has to sit for at least a month so I don't know if it's any good yet, but it smelt good. The whole house smelt of it for a week. I looked at a lot of recipes, I wanted one that has to sit for a while first (which put Jamie Oliver's out)and I did enjoy Delia's comments of; I didn't used to specify that the chutney needs to sit for a month and people wrote to me saying my chutney was vile so clearly you all need it spelling out to you. (I'm paraphrasing here) That's what I love about Delia Smith cookbooks. She is super patronizing which I find helps because everything is really clear.
