Cooked Tomato Relish

  • 1 tbsp Olive oil
  • 2 shallots, finely chopped
  • 1 Garlic clove, crushed
  • 50g Brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp White wine vinegar

2. Bring to the boil and cook for 2 minutes. Combine the tomatoes, Simple Tomato Ketchup, cornflour and cumin and add to the pan; reduce the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes until thickened to a 'relish' consistency.

3. Remove and allow to cool before adding the mustard. Add salt and pepper to taste

4. Kept well covered, this relish will keep in the refrigerator for 2 weeks.
