Rhubarb ideas

Over the years I have tried several different recipes for Rhubarb chutney and I have one that is gorgeous tastes quite similiar to Branston.
If you are interested it is
450g rhubarb
350g onions
175 g raisins
750g brown sugar
480ml cider vinegar
3 tsp salt
1 tsp grd ginger
1 tsp grd cloves
1 tsp grd cinnanmon
1 tsp grd nutmeg
Slice rhubarb and dice onions
Put all ingredients in a large pan and stir until sugar has dissolved.
Bring to boil and simmer for 2 hours stirring frequently (it should be thick and pulpy)
spoon into sterilised jars and leave for 1 month to let flavours mature.
