Perk up your sarnie!

Sainsbury’s  is my favorite UK super market.  This recipe was in the latest Sainsbury’s Magazine.

Perk up your sarnie with a spoonful of this spicy relish. It’s great served with barbecued meats and burgers, too.

Chili and Tomato Relish

1 lb ripe tomatoes, skinned, deseeded and chopped

2 red chilies, finely diced (keep the seeds)
2 Tbs red wine vinegar
2 Tbs lemon juice
1 Tbs tomato purée
8 oz sugar

Bubble the tomatoes, chilies, vinegar, lemon juice and tomato purée together in a medium-sized pan for 8-10 minutes. The mixture should be thick enough that when you run a spoon through it, a gap remains in the middle.

Add the sugar and some seasoning, stir until the sugar dissolves, then boil rapidly for 5 minutes until thickened, stirring occasionally. Pour into a sterilized jar, cover and leave to cool.
