Wash the red bell peppers and red chilli peppers. Deseed them and cut them into small pieces.
Quarter the tomatoes and remove any hard cores.
Peel and roughly chop the garlic cloves.
In a food processor, add the chopped bell peppers, chilli peppers, tomatoes, and garlic. Blend into a rough paste.
Transfer the mixture into a large saucepan and place it over medium heat.
Add the apple cider vinegar, lime juice, salt, ground black pepper, stevia sweetener, and water to the saucepan.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Simmer the mixture for approximately 45 minutes or until it thickens to a jam-like consistency.
Adjust seasoning to taste, if necessary.
Once thickened, remove from heat and let it cool for a few minutes.
Transfer the chilli jam into sterilized jars and seal. Once cooled, store in the refrigerator.
Let the flavours develop for at least 24 hours before using.
