   1                    lemon)
     1/4  cup           red wine vinegar
     1/4  cup           orange juice
   1      pinch         ground mace

                        pepper -- to taste

Preparation:

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 5-6 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 10-15 minutes. Makes about 3 cups. This chutney will keep, covered and refrigerated, about 2 weeks.
