I love the festive season as you can buy fresh cranberries at your local supermarket, and making homemade cranberry chutney is such a great feeling, as it means that Christmas is approaching.
Lightly spiced cranberry chutney always gives me the festive feeling, adding to sandwiches, salads, and cheese boards giving a little extra sweet, spice and tange! With it only taking about 25 minutes to make and easy peasy why would you buy it when you can make it fresh!
