This is a very sweet tomato and raisin chutney, of a pleasing reddish mahogany color. It is unusual in that you can either serve it the same day it is made or store it in the refrigerator for a month or two.

Method

Melt the butter in a saucepan and toss in the raisins. Cook for 2 minutes, then add the tomatoes and cook over medium heat, uncovered, for 7 minutes. Stir constantly.

Transfer either to a double boiler or to a very heavy casserole and add the water, cloves, cinnamon, salt, and pepper. Mix well and cook very slowly, uncovered, for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Add the sugar and vinegar
