  3. Simmer until carrots and swede are soft. 1 1/2 to 2 hours

  4. You may need to add a bit of water if too dry

  5. Pot into clean sterilized jars. Cover and seal

  6. Label and date once cool

  7. It takes about one month to mature.

  8. The last batch I made I replaced courgette by three small cucumbers and instead of prunes I added about 175 grams dates chopped.
