Spicy Chilli Jam
The very best condiment to have handy at all times. It keeps wonderfully well, if you find it is too 'saucy', keep cooking until you get to jammy!
THIS JAM…it has become such a favourite condiment for us. I am pretty sure you will be addicted too. It is authentically Vietnamese in origin, (though as always, I have changed it to suit my own ends!) However, it really will go very well with anything that needs a little punch of sweet heat.
It appears in The Weekend Table, which is everyone's favourite Thermomix cookbook yes? We make just as soon as we run out. I have it on just about anything that needs a kicker. And although it is Vietnamese in origin, it goes very well with all Asian dishes on the side.
To me this is definitely part of your Essential Pantry. If you haven't joined the Shelf Control course yet, it is time!
