Hi lng
we are not that keen on green tomato chutney - but I tried this last year and it was OK.

Green tomato pickle recipe

5 pounds green tomatoes, chopped
1 large onion, chopped
2 tablespoons pickling (or coarse) salt
1 1/2 cups firmly packed brown sugar
2 cups spiced pickling vinegar
2 teaspoons mustard seeds
2 teaspoons whole allspice
2 teaspoons celery seeds
1 1/2 teaspoons whole cloves
3 cups water

Sprinkle tomato and onion with salt; let stand 4 to 6 hours. Drain and pat dry with paper towels; put on onside.
Combine brown sugar and vinegar in a saucepan; cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until sugar dissolves.

Put mustard seeds, allspice, cellery seeds and cloves on 6-inch square of muslin or cheesecloth; tie with string. Add spice bag, tomato, onion, and 3 cups water to vinegar mixture.

Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; reduce heat, and simmer, stirring occasionally, 25 minutes or until tomato and onion are tender. Remove and discard spice bag.

Pour hot mixture into hot jars, filling to 1/2 inch from top. Remove air bubbles; wipe jar rims. Cover at once and seal.
Makes approx 7 pints

Keep for at least ONE month before using.
