Yum - sounds like a good one for lots of applications.

Thanks Katya, will be making this. Looks better than the bought bottle stuff.

Thanks Katya, there seems to be lots of cheap tomatoes round at the moment, or better still from the garden.

A word of warning - I mentioned in my Spicey Burgers thread that this didn't really keep well - it went kind of soggy and watery after a few days. Was still edible but not as nice as it was when freshly made. I had put it in the fridge in a dish with cling film on the top - maybe it would have been better in an air-tight jar.
Anyhow - let me know what you think if you do make it...
