Wash and prepare the vegetables. Chop the tomatoes, onion, and bell pepper. Mince the garlic cloves.
Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan or deep skillet over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and garlic to the pan, and sauté for 2-3 minutes until they become fragrant and slightly softened.
Add the red bell pepper to the pan and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stir in the chopped tomatoes and tomato paste, mixing everything evenly.
Add the apple cider vinegar, ground paprika, ground cumin, ground coriander, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
Reduce the heat to low-medium and let the mixture simmer uncovered for about 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. This allows the mixture to thicken and the flavors to meld together.
Taste the relish and adjust the seasoning if necessary. If you want subtle sweetness, stir in the stevia or monk fruit sweetener at this point.
Once the relish reaches your desired consistency, remove it from the heat. Allow it to cool slightly.
Transfer the Sugar-Free Tomato Relish into sterilized jars or an airtight container. Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
Serve as a condiment with sandwiches, burgers, grilled meat, or roasted vegetables.
