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 find it a little sweet could I cut back on the sugar ? other wise it was easy to make. CHELSEA: Yes, you can reduce the sugar slightly to taste - just keep in mind it helps balance the acidity of the tomatoes and acts as a preservative. If you prefer a tangier relish, try cutting back gradually and adjusting to your liking. Happy cooking!

Hi I have made this relish many times using fresh tomato’s and it is lovely. I have a question regarding using tins of tomato’s. Is the 800gms mentioned in recipe two 400gm tins drained OR is the 800gms of tomato’s the weight of tomato’s after being drained ? CHELSEA: Great question Sue, this recipe uses two tins, liquid included.
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.
My go too every year as i always grow too many tomatoes! So good!
