Method:

1. Prepare onion, garlic, ginger and celery

2. Bring a medium sized saucepan of water to the boil.

3. De-core tomato’s and slice a fine cross at the opposite end piercing the skin

4. Blanch the tomato’s for  30-45 seconds in boiling water

5. Remove tomatoes from boiling water and place them into cold water immediately.

6. Remove skins using a paring knife and roughly dice.

7. In an empty medium saucepan, add all ingredients and bring to the boil gradually.  Simmer for approx. 15 minutes until tomatoes and onion is soft.  Then switch off the pan and let it cool for 5 minutes.

8. Using a stick blender, pulp the mixture until it is fine and smooth. 

9. Using a sieve, work the mixture through into another bowl catching all the seeds, onion, garlic and clove.  In the catching bowl, a smooth runny red mixture should develop.  Dispose of the chunky waste.

10. Place the smooth red liquid into a small saucepan and simmer on a medium to low heat for 25 minutes until thickened.  Stir regularly.

11. Remove from the stove once desired thickness is reached and pour immediately into a recycled glass jar/bottle then refrigerate.  Once at room temperature, place a home-made a recycled paper label on the product that features its quantity, ingredients, name and nutritional value.  

12. Serve with a hearty pie, hot-chips or fresh sausage sizzle.
