blueberry chutney

This blueberry chutney is so unique, tasty and healthy! We love eating it as a dipping sauce with sweet potato chips or homemade chicken nuggets. For a smoother sauce consistency, simply blitz with a stick blender.



Poppy cooks
  1. In a small saucepan, bring to the boil
    2 cups blueberries,
    4 teaspoons garlic, minced,
    1/4 cup red wine vinegar,
    1/2 teaspoon ground ginger,
    1/4 teaspoon onion powder,
    1/4 teaspoon celtic sea salt,
    2 tablespoons coconut sugar and then reduce to a simmer for 25 minutes.

  2. Chill in the fridge and serve!
