That's a tricky one! Onions are one of the main ingredients in chutney, but the spuds and carrots aren't. Chutneys ( or the ones I make!) often have a fruit in such as apples, rhubarb, plums etc and for the veg - onions, beetroot, courgettes. Cooked with vinegar, sugar and spices. I've never used potatoes or carrots. Though I've a recipe for carrot and almond conserve or a jam if you fancy giving that a go.

I'm at work at the moment but will check some of my books out when I get home, pretty sure I saw one when I was looking for carrot chutney, never tried it though, also carrot jam is very nice. As for spuds hmmm that's a hard one

Again not using potatoes, but most other veg can be used to make Italian Pickled Vegetables - Giardiniera. They pickle everything left in the garden at the end of summer eg carrots, green tomatoes, cauliflower or broccoli, green peppers etc.
This recipe uses cloves and peppercorns, I put dill (fronds or seed) in mine you can also add garlic and/or chilli if you like hot pickles.

You could make a potato, onion, carrot and cheese hot pot too. Slice all thinly, layer, dot butter salt and pepper through layers. Add cheese too and a little milk. Shove in oven, once it's soft it's ready. Really tasty

hmmm potatoes. You could boil em up and make loads of mash make into small portions and stick it in the freezer.
