Preparation
Cut the tomatoes into quarters and finely chop the chilli.
Place both in a saucepan along with approx. 50 ml water. The water is just to keep the tomatoes from sticking to the pan.
Bring the mixture to a boil and add the sugar.
Boil until the liquid has reduced completely.
Give it a whiz with a handheld blender before seasoning to taste with salt and lemon juice.
Cool completely before serving.
Tips & Tricks
Store the jam in scalded jars and in the refrigerator to prolong the shelf life. If you make a large portion, rinse the jars with some sodium benzoate first. This improves their shelf life even more.
