Chutney
When the man on the fruit and veg stall in the market is selling a tray of tomatoes for two pounds, there's only one thing you can do.
Based roughly on this recipe.
Ingredients-
2.7kg (6lb) RipeTomatoes
450g (1lb) Onions
350g (12oz) Sugar
300ml (½ pint) Malt Vinegar (and a little bit of white balsamic vinegar)
25g (1oz) Salt
2 tsp Paprika
Wash and chop the tomatoes, peel and chop the onions.
Place the tomatoes and onions into a heavy bottomed saucepan, cook gently to release the tomato juices, simmer for 20 - 30 minutes until tender.
Add the salt, paprika,
Add the sugar and remaining vinegar, stirring until fully dissolved.
Continue simmering, until the mixture becomes thick, stirring occasionally.
Leave for 3 - 5 weeks to allow the flavour to mature
Right, like it's going to last that long in this house.
