I found this excellent recipe for chutney the other
day. It uses cranberries for those folk that were
looking for cranberry recipes not too long ago. I
think this is better than Major Gray's chutney... but
then, whadoo I know?

Combine first 9 ingredients in heavy medium sauce pan
over medium- high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring
frequently. Reduce heat to low and cook for 15
minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add sugar, pears, apple, cranberries and currants and
stir until sugar dissolves. Cook until fruits are
soft and liquid thickens slightly, stirring
occasionally, about 1 hour. Cool to room temperature
(chutney will thicken more as it cools). Cover and
refrigerate. Bring to room temperature before serving.
