Small Batch Cherry Tomato Jam

 

Ingredients:

1 tbsp olive oil

⅓ cup onion chopped

1 pound cherry tomatoes washed and sliced in half ( I did NOT want to cut all the tomatoes so I put in the food processor for a few pulses)

1 tbsp cider vinegar

½ cup brown sugar ( next time I'll cut the amount of sugar)

1 ½ tsp ginger peeled and grated

¼ tsp chili flakes or to taste

½ tsp salt

Directions:

Add oil to a heavy bottomed sauce pan and place on medium-high heat.

Add onions and sautee for 3-5 minutes or until lightly caramelized and soft

Add tomatoes, cider vinegar, brown sugar, ginger, chilli flakes and salt and bring to a boil.

Reduce heat and let simmer for about 30 minutes or until tomatoes have softened and the ingredients have thickened to a jammy texture.

Let cool slightly and then transfer to a small glass jar. See with a lid and store in the fridge for up to 3 weeks.

A neighbor in the community asked me to take care of his plants when he was away for a few days. He's growing cherry tomatoes and told me to pick what I wanted. I honestly think I ate more then I took home😂

Note: Mei loves this and so do I. Made it 3xs already.
