My task for today is to make tomato relish. I grow up on this and so did my husband but it is very hard to find a good one in America. You can add it to any meal for extra flavor or we love it in toasted sandwiches with ham and cheese - a great Friday night meal. Another reason I am making it today as I want to make a Bacon and Egg Pie this weekend for lunch. I made them all the time in NZ, great for leaving in the fridge as a snack after school etc. I haven't made one here yet but going to give it a go this weekend. I will post the recipe - I'm going to make it first with store puff pastry but will work on making my own down the road. By the way my house smells incredible!!!
Tomato Relish
2 cans of diced tomatoes (I got mine on sale for 30 cents each!!) you can use fresh tomatoes from garden too
1 onion, diced
4 cloves of garlic, minced
1 Tablespoon of brown sugar
1 Tablespoon of hot pepper sauce
2 Tablespoons of Worcester Sauce
1/4 teaspoon of salt
1 T Lemon juice
Add everything apart from lemon juice to a stock pot and bring to the boil. Reduce heat to medium heat and simmer for 15-20 mins. Remove and stir in lemon juice. Cool and refrigerate. (Can be put in mason jar with lid). Post update: My husband's comments to me - this is so good you should be selling it. Maybe I shouldn't of posted the recipe!!
