How can I say things? You know those moments you cook something and everyone has only one word in their mouth? "yummy, yummy this is too delicious… "That's what this apple chutney with rhubarb and strawberry does to my kids lol.

This chutney recipe is so delicious and simple to make. A perfect way to use rhubarb and strawberries if you happen to have a garden.

This apple chutney is completely sugar-free, made with only three ingredients plus 2 spoons of water.

Make sure you make a lot of this chutney, otherwise you're going to frustrate some people at your table lol.

The secret behind all that yummy goodness lies in the apples and rhubarb. They both create a perfect balance of sweetness and tart. Making this chutney recipe very unique.

I use very ripened golden apples, they have a lot of sugar and they're very soft especially after being cooked.

Rhubarb, on the other hand, will bring that sour-sweet taste that's not overwrapping the other flavors.

The best thing about this chutney recipe is that there is less preparation needed.

  • Clean your apples, don't peel them, cut them into medium sizes.
  • Use bicarbonate of soda to clean off the pesticides on your fruits and veggies, if they're not organic.
  • Put the apples in a saucepan and add two tablespoonfuls of water and put on medium-high heat. Cook and stir now and then till they become soft.
  • Bring in chopped rhubarb and strawberries. If you have small or medium-size strawberries, don't chop them. The cooking will reduce them.
  • Mix gently and leave the apple chutney to cook on low heat for about 10 mins. Leave the chunks of fruits instead of reducing it to purée.
