Spray medium nonstick saucepan with cooking spray; over medium heat, add mustard seed and cover. When seeds pop, add onion and garlic. Saute over medium til softened. Add remaining ingredients and bring to a light boil. Reduce heat and simmer 30 or 40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until juices thicken. Remove from heat, cool slightly, and transfer to clean jar.

*For a hotter chutney, you can increase cayenne or add chopped chile peppers or dried red pepper flakes.
**I used the supersweet type of pineapple.
