Stewed apple weight vs raw apple weight - help please

Options
Hi all,
I'd like to make Delia's spiced plum chutney but I've got no cooking apples. I do, however, have stewed apples in the freezer and would love to use them up. My only problem is that I don't know the weight of the apples before they were stewed so I don't know how much to put in the chutney compared to the weight of raw apples.
Thank you in advance to anyone who offers an idea!

    My opinion would be that if it's just stewed apple - so no added water or sugar - then the stewed stuff would probably weigh a little more than raw, as it's going to be a bit concentrated. But probably not so much more that you'd really notice.

    Agree with this, haven't tried it myself but think this would work well.
