Combine all ingredients, with 1 cup of the tomato juice in a heavy saucepan or crockpot. Simmer covered for 1/2 hour. Stir, then continue to simmer over low heat for another hour, so liquid evaporates and gets very syrupy (depends on how watery the tomatoes were). As the chutney gets done, the tomatoes will get translucent and "ruby" colored. Store in canning jars or freeze.
