From Our Jewish Cooking Expert

Minted Apple Chutney (pareve)
makes about 1 1/2 cups

1/2 cup mint leaves, packed
1 medium onion, cut in chunks
1 Granny Smith apple, unpeeled and cut in chunks
1 teaspoon salt or to taste
pinch cayenne pepper*
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 cup red wine vinegar or to taste

* just enough to hold between your thumb and forefinger.

In the food processor, place the mint leaves, onion, and apple. Pulse 8-10 seconds or until the mixture resembles very coarse breadcrumbs. Transfer to a bowl and stir in 1 teaspoon salt, pepper and cumin. In a small cup or bowl, mix the sugar and vinegar. Heat in microwave at High for 30 seconds. Stir to dissolve sugar. Pour over the mint mixture and stir to mix. Add a little more salt, pepper and vinegar to taste. Spoon into jars, cover and refrigerate up to 5 days. Serve chilled.
