INGREDIENTS
- 2.5kg ripe tomatoes, coarsely chopped

- 1 tablespoon sweet paprika
- 1 clove garlic, sliced
- 1/2 cinnamon stick
- 2 tablespoons salt
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 2 cups (clear) white malt vinegar
- Place tomato, onion, cloves, berries, paprika, garlic, cinnamon and salt in a large saucepan over medium heat. Bring to the boil. Simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 1 hour or until the tomato breaks down.
- Add the sugar and vinegar. Simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, for a further hour and 15 minutes or until mixture reduces, thickens and is of a saucy consistency. Adjust seasoning.
