Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large red onions
- 4 medium ripe tomatoes
- 2 medium fresh red chillies
- 2 large garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons ground paprika
Instructions
Peel and finely slice the red onions.
Dice the tomatoes into small pieces, removing the seeds if preferred for a smoother relish.
Finely chop the fresh red chillies, removing the seeds if you prefer less heat.
Mince the garlic cloves into a paste or finely chop them.
Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat.
Add the sliced red onions and sauté for 5-7 minutes until they become soft and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic, chopped chillies, and ground paprika. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the diced tomatoes to the saucepan and stir well to combine with the aromatic mixture.
Pour in the red wine vinegar and add the brown sugar, salt, and black pepper. Stir everything until the sugar dissolves.
Lower the heat to a simmer and allow the mixture to cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the relish thickens and the flavors meld together.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt, pepper, or sugar as needed.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the relish cool slightly.
Transfer to a clean, sterilized jar or container and allow it to cool completely before sealing.
Store the relish in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. Serve as a condiment with your favorite dishes.
