Fresh Stone-Fruit Chutney

LisaLisa

The chutney is macerated in vinegar and sugar, creating a syrupy sauce that also softens the fruit.

  • 2 small firm but ripe apricots or plums (about 6 ounces total), halved, pitted, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup quartered pitted cherries
  • 6 tablespoons sugar
  • 3 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon garam masala*
