Ingredients
- 1.5 kg ripe tomatoes, roughly chopped
- 500 g apples, unpeeled, cored and roughly chopped
- 500 g brown onions, peeled and roughly chopped
- 150 g brown sugar
- 150 g caster sugar
- 500 ml (2 cups) apple cider vinegar
- 500 ml (2 cups) red wine, such as Merlot
- 50 ml soy sauce
- 20 g salt
- 1 tbsp Keen’s Mustard
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 tsp ground allspice
- 1 tsp ground cloves
Instructions
- Combine all the ingredients in a large saucepan and bring to a simmer. Partially cover the pan with a lid and simmer over low heat for 2 hours, then remove from the heat.
- Remove the bay leaves, then transfer to a high-powered blender and puree the mixture until smooth. Taste and adjust the seasoning and texture if necessary. If the sauce is too thin, return it to the pan and simmer until reduced. If it is too thick, thin it with some boiling water.
- When the sauce is the consistency you like (remember, it will thicken a little when it’s cooled) pass through a sieve and transfer to a squeeze bottle to serve.
