1500g | tomato |
1000g | red onion, white onion & shallot |
6 | garlic cloves |
35g | ginger |
300g | brown sugar |
500ml | red wine vinegar |
350ml | water |
7 | apples (only had one so I topped it up with minced, dried apple slices) |
130g | sultanas |
10tsp | salt |
3splash | lemon juice |
Skin the toms.
Seed them and keep the pulp, last time I chucked it.
Sieve the pulp.
Microwave the bits that didn't go through the sieve and sieve again. This made 400ml juice so I used ½ the water.
Mix the juice, vinegar, salt and sugar.
I use the Mighty Aligator Chopper so:
3x3mm grid - ginger and garlic
12x12mm grid - tomatoes
6x6mm grid - everything else
Place in the bowl of the Mighty Kenwood Cooking Chef, simmer for one hour.
Adjust seasoning, I added white pepper.
Boil for 15-20 minutes until thickened.
Jar.
Glut of toms just before the hols
Filled 5½ 500ml Kilner jars.
If you don't have an Alligator then you can struggle with a knife but you will never achieve the same precision of chopping; they're expensive but quality don't come cheap!
