Chili ketchup

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 2 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make chili ketchup for the winter? For ketchup, choose ripe and juicy tomatoes. It’s better to taste the chili pepper to see if it’s really hot. Rinse the vegetables well.

2. STEP 2

   

   Pour olive oil into a thick-bottomed pan and heat. Cut the tomatoes into quarters and place in a saucepan. Add sugar and salt, stir. Cover with a lid and simmer for ten minutes.

3. STEP 3

   

   Clean the chili pepper from veins and seeds, chop finely and add to the tomatoes. Simmer until pureed. I simmered it for about an hour and a half over low heat, stirring occasionally. Then cool slightly and grind with a blender. Put it back on the fire.

4. STEP 4

   

   Peel the bell pepper from veins and seeds, cut into small cubes, and add to the pan with the tomatoes.

5. STEP 5

   

   Dilute the starch with cold water and stir.

6. STEP 6

   

   Add chopped garlic to the future ketchup and simmer for 5 minutes, then add starch in a thin stream, simmer for another 2 minutes.

7. STEP 7

   

   Sterilize the jars in a way convenient for you. I prefer to do this in the oven. I put the jars in a cold oven, set the temperature to 180 degrees and the timer for 20 minutes. Pour hot ketchup into sterile jars, roll up with sterile lids, cover with a towel and leave until completely cool. Then store it in a cool place - a cellar or refrigerator. Chili ketchup is ready for the winter! Bon appetit and happy cooking!

Homemade ketchup is a hundred times tastier than store-bought and healthier. Thanks for the recipe. I cook a slightly different version, not so spicy. I cook ketchup in a slow cooker and instead of chili pepper, I add an apple.

A very spicy sauce for lovers of dishes with "sparkle". I prepared chili ketchup for the winter especially for my husband, a lover of spicy things. He took a sample and liked it. Thank you very much for the recipe!
