A year-round recipe that is just as good with tinned tomatoes. Simple and delicious.
It’s the perfect companion for cheese, cold meats, or a classic sausage roll. Whether you spread it on a sandwich or dollop it onto a ploughman’s platter, this relish is a pantry essential that will be requested again and again.

I havnt used it yet but I am going to , have made chutney before but this seems like a really easy receipe, will do it next week.
Fresh tomatoes: cut a small cross on the top of each tomato, place in large bowl and cover with boiling water. Leave for a minute. Drain and rinse with cold water, peel off skins.
Tinned tomatoes: drain off juice and set aside.
Roughly chop the tomatoes; finely chop the onions and garlic. Place the tomatoes, onions, garlic, Chelsea Raw Sugar, vinegar and salt in a large saucepan and bring to the boil. Reduce to a medium heat and gently cook for 15-20 minutes.
Mix the curry powder, mustard powder and cornflour with the extra vinegar to a form a smooth paste. Stir into the tomatoes and cook until thickened.
Spoon into warm, sterilised jars and seal. Refrigerate once opened.
Makes 700-800ml.
Frequently asked questions
Can I adjust the spiciness of tomato relish?
Yes, you can modify the spiciness of tomato relish to suit your taste. Just adjust the amount of curry powder or add fresh chilies during cooking. For a milder version, reduce the curry powder or leave it out entirely.
