Chilli Jam

Recipe by: Alexandra July 17, 2018 Sauces

Description

Wonderfully healthy sauce which will help you fight a winter flu and gives you an energy.

Ingredients

8 oz, 250 grams red hot chili peppers, seeded and chopped

1.5 lbs, 750 grams, red bell peppers, cored, seeded and chopped

2 cups apple cider vinegar

2 â€“ 2.5 cups sugar

Directions

In a pot, combine chili peppers, red bell peppers and apple cider vinegar. Cover the pot with a lid and cook for about 20 min or until the peppers have softened.

In a colander, drain the pepper mixture and with the back of a wooden spoon, press on the peppers to extract any excess liquid. The more you press, the better, and the more stained your colander will get. Just letting you know.

Transfer peppers to a blender or food processor and puree. Press the puree through a sieve to remove the pepper skin. Discard the skin.

In a saucepot, over medium heat, add the pepper puree and add sugar a little at a time and mix until sugar has dissolved. Continue to cook the mixture for about 12-20 min, stirring occasionally, until the mixture looks almost jam like, keeping in mind that the jam will thicken as it cools.

Allow to cool and transfer into jars.
