Quick Apple Chutney

This probably qualifies more as an apple sauce, but it's made in 2 minutes and made for serving with cold pork or as a side to a slice of hot black pudding laid on an oat cake with a salad dressing around it. Or as a tasty tidbit with cold roasted ham.

Ingredients

• 2 apples, peeled, cored and chopped
• 1 tbsp brown sugar
• 125ml water
• 1 large spring onion, chopped
• 2tsp dried sage

Throw the lot into a heavy-based saucepan and boil it up, with the lid loosely over the pan, until the apples have absorbed the moisture. Give it the occasional mix up to distribute the sugar, sage and onion throughout. Serve warm or cold.
