Ingredients
  

  • 3.5 kg Eating Apples unprepared weight
  • 1.3 kg sugar
  • 700 g sultanas
  • 350 ml white wine vinegar
  • 350 ml red wine vinegar
  • 350 ml apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoon mustard seeds
  • 800 g onions peeled & diced
  • 2 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions
 

  • Wash, peel, core and chop the apples.  (As you go, place them in a bowl of cold water mixed with the lemon juice to prevent discolouring).



  • Place all of the ingredients in a large jam pan, then bring to a simmer while stirring to dissolve the sugars.
  • Now continue to simmer until thickened.  This can take around 1 hour, but keep stirring from time to time to ensure it doesn't catch at the bottom.  You may want to use a splatter guard as I often do.
  • Once thickened, pour straight in to sterlized jars.  I usually just put recycled jars in the dishwasher and leave to mature for as long as you can before eating or giving as gifts.
