    <h2 class="block-title"><span>Directions</span></h2>

                            <li>In a medium saucepan, heat oil over low heat. Add leek, stirring on occasion for about 5 minutes. Stir in cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg. Cook for 1-2 minutes.</li>
                                    <li>Raise the heat to high; stir in remaining ingredients. Bring mixture to a boil and stir so ingredients are well mixed.</li>
                                    <li>Reduce heat to simmer and cook mixture until cranberries are split and apple pieces are tender, 10-12 minutes. If mixture is too thick, add 1-2 tbsp water and stir. </li>
                                    <li>Remove from heat. Chutney will thicken slightly as it cools. Taste for seasoning, adding more salt, pepper, maple syrup, ginger, nutmeg, or cinnamon as desired. </li>
