I have been searching out some recipes to use up some of my green tomato
supply now that the weather is turning cooler. I found this recipe in "All
Around the World Cookbook" by Shelia Lukins. The recipe initially did not
contain any peppers (can you imaging that?), but I added some in at the end
and I think it turned out quite tasty.

1. Place the green tomatoes, onions, and papayas in a large heavy pot. Add
the sugar, vinegar, salt, and spices. Stir well.

2. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce the heat slightly, and simmer
uncovered until the mixture is thick, about 1 hour. Add peppers at the end.

3. Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate covered until ready to use.
The chutney will thicken slightly as it chills. If you prefer a less
liquidy chutney, drain a bit off. makes 4 cups

note: I poured the warm mixture into hot jars and sealed them up to give as
gifts. I guess if you use different peppers you may want to cook them into
the mix sooner.
