    Tomato relish.
    1kg firm ripe toms
    250g onions
    250g green apples
    200ml vinegar
    250g brown sugar
    2 tsp curry powder
    Pinch of cayenne pepper
    2 tsp all spice
    1 chilli
    2 tsp peppercorns
    1 1/2 Tbl salt

    Dice toms and onions sprinkle with salt and leave to sit overnight. Drain off all juice. Peel and thinly slice apple, add to Tomato and onion. Pour over vinegar and cook over med high heat until boiling. Reduce heat and cook 5 minutes stirring only occasionally. Take 2 T of the juice and mix it with curry and cayenne. Add this and sugar to saucepan. Slice chilli tie in cotton with pepper and allspice and add to saucepan. Stir well and cook on high for 5 min. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 25 min stirring occasionally. Remove bag of spices and bottle while hot. I sterilize jars on the oven and add hot relish to hot bottles and seal with lid. Yum.

    If thats too hard, the easiest recipe i know would be to buy 'easy sauce' from you supermarket and follow the recipe on the side of the bottle. It has list of spices already in the bottle.

    Tom chutney

    1.5 kgs toms
    450g onions finely chopped
    300g brown sugar.
    1 1/2 C malt vinegar
    11/2 Tbl mustard powder
    1Tbl curry powder
    1/2 tsp cayenne
    2tsp salt

    Chop toms, allow to sit overnight and drain off juice. Combine with remaining ingredients. Stir without boiling until sugar dissolves. Simmer uncovered about one hour 15 min or until mixture thickens. Jar while hot.

    Were eating this one now, it's yum.


    All the recipes say peel toms but I can never be bothered! But if you want to cut an x in the bottom of your toms, plunge them in boiling wAter for a few moments, remove let cool a little and skin is easy to remove.

    You could semi dry some in the oven and jar them in oil?

    Home made Tom sauce is the best! Recipe also in easy sauce bottle.
