Soak raisins in a bowl of hot water for 10 minutes.
In a saucepan, melt sugar with vinegar. Add the figs, apple, onion, raisins, salt and spices (ginger, clove and nutmeg).
Bring to a boil, then reduce to low heat and cook for about an hour, stirring frequently.
Put the chutney into a jar and store it in a dry place.
