I received this email from a reader on Friday, and it made me feel warm all over (and if you made some, you would be warm all over!);
Hi Gavin,
Though I would let you know I have always had a surplus of chilies from a 3 year old Chilli bush. I made your hot Chilli chutney today and found it great to make and the instructions were easy to follow. I have some residue oil on the top but I think I can find a few thing to do with it. Thanks for some very interesting reading and look forward to your blog and I have used some of your ideas. Keep on keeping on.
As always
Cheers
Denny
And here is a photo that Denny attached.
Fantastic work Denny! It is amazing what an hours work in the kitchen can produce with a bit of determination. I reckon that there is about a years supply of Hot Chilli Chutney for a family of four in those jars. For those who missed the recipe, it is posted here.
I love getting emails from readers who are motivated to try something different, just from reading my blog. It makes it so much more worthwhile.
If you have tried something that you wouldn't have otherwise have given a go, and were motivated by something you read on "The Greening of Gavin", drop me an email. I would love to do a big post about the many inspirational things people are doing on their journey towards a sustainable lifestyle.
I hope that doesn't sound to big headed of me, I just want to share the readership's love.
The chutney looks fabulous, complimented by the pretty fabric it's been photographed on. My sister has just dropped around with a bag of figs. Aren't I lucky! Looks like fig jam session coming up this afternoon and as the weather has cooled I'm more inclined to tackle this task. Would Denny mind sharing where the lovely jars have come from. Are they Fowlers jars?
ReplyDeleteGavin thanks for sharing this.
Cheers

I would be keen to try this myself but chillies the next day are never kind to me. :)
