Sounds delicious, quite a high ratio peppers to tomatoes ...how many jars did you get?

Nicki Wickes tomato & red pepper relish

"Now is the time to be making chutneys and relishes with the abundance of summer produce that’s on offer.

500g ripe tomatoes chopped

4 large red peppers, chopped and de-seeded

2 tbsps salt

2 cups white vinegar

1 tbsp mustard seeds

1 ½ cups sugar

¼ tsp each turmeric and paprika

Good pinch of chilli powder

Sprinkle vegetables with salt in a colander and leave for a few hours to reduce some of the moisture.
In a large saucepan place all the ingredients, including the salted vegetables, and bring to the boil. Lower the heat and simmer until thick, usually about 1.5-2 hours. Pour into sterilised jars while hot, then seal.
This chutney is delicious with cheese and crackers, or with your favourite meat loaf.

Tips:

Always grease the bottom of the saucepan to prevent sticking during the long cook down.
Add a dollop of relish or chutney to your favourite curry, stew or casserole for a wonderful flavour lift."

I got 2 tall narrow, probably black olive jars, 4 smaller might have been better

I didn't grease and it didn't burn or stick, I love this relish with a schnitzel (sp)?

Perfect spelling! ;o)
I'm inundated with tomatoes atm (isn't everyone) but my capsicums are a bit slow to red up...might have to buy some to give it a try.
