Feijoa Chutney- Simple method

---

It's Feijoa season and we get lots of them here in New Zealand. I have never heard of this unique fruit before coming here but when I ate it ,it was a mix of guava and pineapple.

Recently we had this gifted by one of our friends from their garden and I wanted to try Feijoa chutney with minimum ingredients. I went through lots of recipes but promise this recipe will not make you run to the supermarket for additional ingredients and you can relish the feijoa goodness.
