Ingredients

  • 680g ripe tomatoes, chopped into cubes if large, or halved if small

  • 200g golden caster sugar

  • 2 tbsp cider vinegar

  • 1 tbs finely grated ginger

  • 1 tsp sea salt

  • ½ tsp ground mixed spice

  • ½ tsp mild chili powder

  • ½ tsp cracked black pepper

Method

  1. Place all of the ingredients into a large heavy-based saucepan and bring to the boil over a medium heat, stirring as you do.
  2. Once it has started to boil reduce the heat and allow it to simmer gently for an hour. If it has not thickened to the consistency of jam allow it to bubble away for another ten minutes or so.

  3. Once cool place into the fridge in a clean jar or tub with an airtight lid. It will last for over a week.
