We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Heat oven to 150°C.

  • Step 2: Lay the tomatoes cut side up on a sheet of baking paper drizzle with just a little olive oil and sprinkle with the sugar, salt and pepper. Roast tomato's for one hour.

  • Step 3: Remove the tomato's from the oven and sprinkle the chopped onions over the semi-roasted tomato's and place back in the oven for another hour.

  • Step 4: When ready remove the tomatoes and allow the tomatoes to cool slightly then slip the skins of the tomato's (they will come off easily) then roughly chop the tomato's.

  • Step 5: Place the tomato's/onions in a saucepan and add the other ingredients and bring the mix to a light simmer, stirring frequently and stir until the sugar dissolves.

  • Step 6: Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer for 45 minutes or until the relish is thick. The mix will go a little darker and thicker when ready.

  • Step 7: Taste and add a dash more of red pepper flakes if you like a bit of heat.

  • Step 8: Spoon into sterilised jars and seal.
