SWEET CHILLI JAM.
A savoury Condiment for grilled or cold meats.
Ingredients.
8 red peppers, deseeded and roughly chopped
10 red chillies, roughly chopped
Finger-size piece of fresh root ginger, peeled and roughly chopped
8 garlic cloves, peeled
400g can cherry tomatoes
750g/1lb 10ozs golden castor sugar
250ml/9flozs red wine vinegar
Method
1. Tip peppers, chillies(with seeds), ginger and garlic into a food processor, then whiz until finely chopped. Scrape into a heavy-bottomed pan with tomatoes, sugar and vinegar, then bring everything to the boil. Skim off any scum that comes to the surface, turn the heat down to a simmer and cook for 50 minutes, stirring occasionally.
2. Once jam becomes sticky, continue cooking for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring frequently so it doesn't catch and burn, it should look like thick, bubbling lava. Cool slightly, transfer to sterilised jars, then leave to cool completely. Keeps for 3 months in a cool, dark cupboard - refrigerate once opened.
