Method

  • step 1

    Tip all the ingredients into a large heavy-based pan and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring frequently. Simmer for 1 hr, then bring to a gentle boil so that the mixture turns dark, jammy and shiny. Place into sterilised jars and allow to cool before covering. Will keep for 6 weeks.

Brilliant. Easy. I can't make it quick enough. My family love it, they eat it with everything.

Great recipe! I tweak it a bit by blanching my tomatoes to remove the skins and add some nigella seeds then a touch of tomato purée near the end.

First time I have made this. Had a glut of baby tomatoes, absolutely loved it. I would however, cut down on the amount of sugar next time. Will definitely be making again.

"5 cardamom seeds" is actually 5 cardamom PODS which contain many more than 5 seeds (there are at least 25 seeds in five pods - probably more tbh). Delicious.

question

Can I preserve this in kilner jars with the water method to preserve it for longer?

Without a doubt yes. I have also stored in ordinary sterilised jamjars and covering with several layers of clingfilm before replacing the lid. Last years batch are still fine and I still have a couple of jars left
