This is what I really bought the Thermomix for- to make my own condiments/pastes/stock etc. I am going to slowly build a fridge full of organic, fresh, preservative-free jars of jams, spreads and condiments. Very exciting!! Made this tomato ketchup today and I am finding it hard to imagine how I will ever go back to regular tomato sauce!!! It is delicious. Tried today on some crispy bacon (YUM!!). This recipe is straight from the "My Way Of Cooking" cookbook. I figured some of you may not have the cookbook or may have overlooked the recipe. Or maybe you have tried it yourself already? If you have, you will know how amazing it really is!! I added about half a cup of water to mine and mixed it in the very end as it came out very thick. You could make it any consistency you like really, but for me, Ketchup needs to be runny!! Hope you love it as much as we do!!!!! x
HOMEMADE KETCHUP
Ingredients:
1000g tomatoes (ripe) cut into quarters
180g red peppers, cut into pieces
130g red onions, cut in half
2 garlic cloves
100g red wine vinegar
Pinch of nutmeg
10 mustard seeds
10 black peppercorns
1 dry bay leaf
1 tsp hot paprika
Pinch of cayenne pepper
1 tsp salt
100g honey
Preparation:
1) Place tomatoes, red peppers, red onions, garlic cloves and 50g red wine vinegar into TMX bowl and chop for 5 seconds on speed 7.
2) Cook 40 minutes at Varoma temp on speed 2, place simmering basket instead of measuring cup onto mixing bowl lid.
3) Add remaining red wine vinegar, spices and honey, cook for 18 minutes on Varoma heat on speed 2 until mixture has thickened.
4) Mix for 1 minute on speed 10. Transfer into jars with twist lids (approx 3/4 full) and top up with water. Mix with a spoon. (You can decide how much water to add to the consistency you like).
**In the recipe book it now says to "screw on the lids and turn the jars upside down for 10 minutes and let them cool". The sauce really is too hot at this point to do this (it'll end up exploding out of the jar's lid). So I let it cool on the bench and then did this in the fridge after about 1/2 an hour.
Done! Boom!!
