The great thing about this spread is, if stored correctly, it'll last for just over a month in the fridge. Which means days and days of food you'll really er.... relish.
CHILLI TOMATO RELISH
Serves heaps
Ingredients
- 1 brown onion finely chopped
- 2 Garlic Cloves finely chopped
- 600g mini roma tomatoes - quartered (or 600g standard) - quarters
- 1 x Red capsicum cut in strips
- 1/2 cup of white wine vinegar
- 1.5 cups of brown sugar
- 2 tbsp of chopped chilli paste
Put 1 tbsp virgin olive oil in a frying pan and heat. Add your chopped onion and stir and cook till translucent and melty looking. Add garlic, capsicum and stir until your veggies are cooked and softened
Add your quartered tomatoes and brown sugar and stir through. Make a center well in the pan with your tomatoes and slowly pour in your white wine vinegar. Once it's all poured in, stir through the mix. Finally add your chilli paste in and stir through.
Put on simmer on a very low head and go put a movie on. 2 hours later the result should be a lovely thick and jammy relish.
Get a clean sterile glass jar / container, put your relish in the jar and then put a paper towel over it while it's cooling down - so no bugs or nasties get in. It's important you don't put a lid on this until it's totally cooled down - collecting moisture is really bad for this. Add a secure lid and put in the fridge.
