in another pan mix together a tablespoon vinegar the flour and the spices to a smooth paste. Start to heat gently adding the rest of the vinegar very carefully bit by bit as you would for a roux ensuring there are no lumps.

Good Morning...

Thanks for the recipe Shirley, will give it a go. You mentioned Vinegar but not the amount or type, i'd normally use cider in chutneys but every recipes different.
Sorry to be a pain but if you still have recipe at hand please let me know.
Thanks a lot.
