This is the BEST tomato relish recipe, it's so delicious it doesn't last long!

Great in sandwiches and as a condiment, but my top favourite is with blue cheese and avocado on crackers, yum!

One thing we wanted to do to be more self-sufficient is grow as much of our own food as we could, and to preserve excess for the off-season. With this recipe being our friend's Great-Nana's, it was a great reminder that we want to do more of what she would have done!

Great-Nana's Tomato Relish

  • 6 lbs tomatoes
  • 3 lbs sugar
  • 3 lbs onions
  • 6 cups vinegar
  • 2 tbspn mustard
  • 2 tbspn curry powder
  • Salt to taste - approx 4-6 tspns
  • Cornflour to thicken - approx 8 tbspn


Chop tomatoes and onions, put into large pot.  Add sugar, vinegar, mustard and curry.  Bring to the boil, simmer for approx 1-2 hours, stirring regularly (until tomatoes cooked).

Add salt to taste and cornflour to thicken.  Bottle into sterilised jars.

Enjoy!
