Tip

Sauce is great on meat - cold or hot, chops, sausages,

If you prefer to make a large batch of sauce on the stove top and do preparation in TM, the following is ingredients required:

3 kg tomatoes, 2 large onions, 5 green apples, 11/3 cups white vinegar, 2 tablespoons of salt, 1 heaped teaspoon of mustard powder, 1 teaspoon of cloves, 1 teaspoon of allspice, 1/2 teaspoon of cayene pepper, 680 gm sugar

Puree onion, apple, tomatoes. cook all ingredients except sugar which I add at the end. Takes 31/2 hours approx cooking on low. When sugar is added and heated and disolved. Transfer some at a time into TM bowl and puree 1min and then heat to 100 degrees and pour into bottles.

Cuts preparation time and normal cooking time in half

    So delicious! I make a batch of this a couple of times a year to keep us going. The kids even like it.
    We use it on lots of things and I add it to things while cooking too.
    It is quite thin, I usually add some cornflour in a paste towards the end.
    I think it becomes slightly thicker in the fridge too?
    It's yum anyway!

    Very tasty, mine was a bit thin, what can I do to make it thicker next time? Increase cooking time to reduce liquid?

    I had to use a glut of tomatoes - I added Mexican chilli powder & Korean - as I had no cayenne powder.  I also had to use bottled seeded mustard as I had run out of powdered mustard.  Love it - just a subtle amount of heat afterwards - great flavours! Thank you for the recipe!

    Onto my 6th batch. Best ever. My tomato sauce loving mother no longer enjoys her favourite supermarket brand and I'm not a huge fan of tomato sauce but love this one. Love how it tastes, love how long it lasts once opened and also love that mostly I have all the ingredients on hand - usually on need to buy the tomatoes.

    Am just making my second batch as I write this.  It tastes just like real sauce!  I did add a red pepper though as had seen one added in a different recipe and had excess.  It was a little runny and added an extra apple this time but a previous comment said it thickened on cooling.  Really love the taste and not too sweet.  Will definitetly be a keeper.
