Lemon Curd
Long, slow cooking is the secret for a good lemon curd. Use a double boiler or a heatproof bowl over a pan of hot water. Take your time! This recipe makes about 800g which should just about fill two standard size jam jars.
Make sure that used jars are spotlessly clean and sterilise by warming in the oven.
The curd should keep in a cool place in perfect condition for about three months.

Mrs Bennett's Mango Chutney
Keeley Bennett kindly gave us this mango chutney recipe which is so easy to make. You can use slightly under ripe mangoes and experiment with different spices. Cardamom pods or seeds (either green or black) will add a unique and aromatic fragrance. Whole black peppercorns will add some heat. This recipe will make about 3 good size jam jars.
