Ingredients

  • 1 large red capsicum pepper, chopped without the seeds or membrane
  • 1 large green capsicum pepper
  • 6 red birds eye chilis chopped
  • 1 small brown onion chopped
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt flakes
  • 2 cups raw sugar
  • cup red wine vinegar

Instructions

  • Combine all the ingredients in a large saucepan and bring to the boil, stirring, until the sugar has dissolved.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and boil gently for 20-25 minutes or until jam reaches setting point - to test, refrigerate a small plate until chilled. Spoon a teaspoon of jam onto the plate and refrigerate for 5 minutes. If, when you run your finger through the middle, the jam stays separated in half, it is ready, if not, cook for a little longer.
  • Spoon the jam into sterilised jars and seal.
  • Jam will keep for up to 3 months refrigerated.
