Serve as you would a sweet chilli sauce, with spring rolls, fish cakes, barbecued meats or cheese. Mix a spoonful with mayonnaise for a quick chilli-mayo (great for burgers). To make a sweet chilli relish, substitute 500g tomatoes with 2 x 400g tinned tomatoes (drained) and cook until thick.

Method

Finely chop half the tomatoes and set aside with the onion.
In a food processor combine the rest of the tomatoes, chillies, garlic, ginger and fish sauce; blend until fairly smooth. Pour the blended mix into a saucepan with the sugar and vinegar. Bring to the boil, stirring regularly with a wooden spoon.
Add remaining tomatoes and onion; reduce to a simmer for 40-50 minutes. Skim off any foam and stir often.
When thick and syrupy, remove from the heat and cool slightly before pouring into pre-sterilised glass jars. Store in a cool place and refrigerate once opened.
Makes approximately 2 x 250ml jars.
