4 almost ripe bananas, cut into 1-inch thick rounds
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/4 c. fresh lemon juice (about 1 lemon)
1/4 c. red wine vinegar
1/4 c. orange juice
pinch each of ground mace, ground nutmeg, ground cloves, and ground cinnamon
salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste
In a large saute' pan, heat the peanut oil over high heat until hot but not smoking. Add the onion slices and saute', stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 5 to 6 minutes.
Lower the heat to medium, add the ginger, and saute' an additional 1 minute.
Add all the remaining ingredients, bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and cook until the liquid is about as thick as catsup, about 10 to 15 minutes.
The chutney will keep, covered and refrigerated, about 2 weeks.
