Fancy making some tomato and chilli jam?

Today I am sharing this Tomato And Chilli Jam by Adam Woolven at Island Grill.

This barbeque season, put down the bottle of generic tomato ketchup and surprise your guests with something a little more original.

Island Grill, the sustainable restaurant in Lancaster London, offers an unrivalled, eco-friendly menu.

This summer, the kitchen team will be making all burgers from scratch in-house, so Head Chef Adam Woolven has started to prepare with his home-made chutneys and jams.

Adam Woolven, Head Chef at Island Grill, shares his recipe for a tangy Tomato and Chilli Jam.

Tomato And Chilli Jam:

Ingredients:

• 1kg Very Ripe Plum Tomatoes
• 5 Red Chilli Peppers
• 8 Garlic Cloves
• Ginger (10cm piece)
• 60ml Fish Sauce
• 550g Demerara Sugar
• 200ml Red Wine Vinegar
• Pinch of Salt and Pepper

How To Make:

Step 1: Bring a large pot of water to the boil. Add the plum tomatoes to the water and boil for 10-15 seconds. Following this, run the tomatoes under cold water, then peel and quarter them.

Step 2: Peel the ginger (easiest done with a spoon), then finely chop it, along with the garlic cloves and chilli.

Step 3: In a large pan, cook the tomatoes, garlic, ginger and chillies on a low heat until the mixture becomes of pulp-like consistency. Pour the fish sauce, red wine vinegar and Demerara sugar into the mix. Stir well. Season with a little salt and pepper.

Step 4: Don’t wait for the jam to cool – store the jam in a sterilized jar whilst still hot.

Step 5: Scoop a generous spoonful of jam onto your freshly barbecued burger – and enjoy!
