Spiced kiwi chutney

During the winter festivities it’s nice to have some home-made chutney in the fridge. This delicate, spiced kiwi chutney goes especially well with roast poultry and ham.  It’s an ideal Christmas gift to open on Boxing day or before New Year to finish off any leftover meat and cheese.
