Greetings from the finally unfrozen Northeast!

Does anyone have recipes they’d recommend for fruit salsa/chutney? I am
particluarly interested in recipes using cranberries. I tried cranberry
salsa

Thanks in advance!

Adapted from one by the late, great fruitbat.

All right, I admit I made a mistake cooking this as well as all the
other The maxim that ‘serves 4’ is in fact referring to a bunch of
anorexic sparrows and most humans prefer to eat more than a tablespoon
of something, doesn’t always work. Can I interest anybody in a kilo of
nutty potatoes and a large bowl of Mahal Kidney Beans that even I am
too stuffed to eat?
