Since that preparing chutney at home is uncomplicated and cinch too and lasts for ages in the fridge, it is always worth to make your favourite chutney from scratch and I love to do that. You can prepare it with fresh and best quality ingredients, you can choose whatever flavours or combinations you fancy.

Just a couple of weeks ago we finished our last jar of Red Pepper and Chilli Chutney, it was phenomenal. Without this chutney, everyone in the family wasn't enjoying their sandwiches. I went to market without any such idea, but when I saw fresh and gold Apricots, already my brain started ticking, and next, I picked up Mixed peppers and a bunch of thyme. I decided to make Apricot, Mixed Pepper and Thyme Chutney and it turned out delightful, exactly how we like.

Notes :-
You can replace Apricot with Peaches.
