amazing! i altered it slightly after reading the other reviews. (i only used a 12oz bag of cranberries, all i could find frozen. and used a 3rd apple so reduction wasnt too watery. i was worried about the apple cider vinegar being too strong, so i used 1/3 cup. i also used crushed pineapple for extra flavor, and made up the difference of liquid with pineapple juice. i added a little lime zest for flavor. its perfect! and really easy.

I made a big batch of this for Thanksgiving and ended up throwing it all away after one tiny taste. It smelled and tasted of vinegar so strongly. The cranberry, apple and ginger would have been a beautiful combination. I would make this again and not use any vinegar at all. it doesn't need it. In fact the vinegar completely ruins the dish.

This gets 3 stars because of the ridiculous amount of apple cider vinegar it says to use. I made the recipe as stated before I read the reviews about cutting the amount of vinegar. Way too bitter! Other then that, the recipe has potential.

I love this side! Each time I make it I tweak it I think. A smide more sugar each time, just 1 more apple. Also, add the zest of an orange, along with the juice squeezed from it. It doesn't disappoint! Maybe a little light on the apple-cider vinegar and of course it's strong at first, but if you cook it long enough, it thickens up nice, and tastes, AND smells out of this world!

A solid simple recipe that was easy to tweak. I added a navel orange. Did end up with too much liquid in the finish product so I took out some of the liquid for cranberry spritzers.

I just made it last night and it turned out fantastic! Mine was a bit too soupy when it was almost done, but I added 1/2 to 2/3 of a bag of Craisins and let it simmer for another 10 minutes, and it pulled together quite nicely. I used only 1/4 cup of apple cider vinegar and squeezed an orange for another 1/4 cup of juice, and my cup of sugar was a heaping cup. I would definitely recommend this, quite tasty!

I've made this recipe for quite a few years now and it is a hit. The key is reducing the vinegar to about half as others have noted, making sure to use about 16 oz of cranberries, and adding orange juice in about the amount that you remove in vinegar. I've even added chopped walnuts to this and it great as well if you prefer that. 3 apples instead of 2 also seems to work well. Enjoy!

I used 16 oz. cranberries and 1/3 cup vinegar and it came out nice and thick - not too tart and not too sweet. I used it on hamburgers!! and then put it over vanilla ice cream for dessert. Worked well.

I read the reviews warning about the vinegar but instead of trying to adjust the measurements of the vinegar, I adjusted the amount of cranberries. The recipe says 10-16 oz; I used 16-18 oz. I'm not a cook by any stretch of imagination, but the dish came out perfectly. It was a delicious combination of sweet and tart and with fun texture.

The chutney enhanced the already moist, tasty turkey and was a big hit at my table. For dessert we had Aztec Hot Chocolate Pudding (chocolate, chili, rum, yum! and the chutney was a fruity topping, bringing out the chocolaty goodness.

I'm very glad I tried this! Now to figure out if it freezes well....
