Title: Delicious BBQ Sauce
Post by: snappy on January 29, 2012, 09:23:15 am
Tastes (and looks) just like the sauce from the shops,

Ingredients
1 tbs olive or rice bran oil
1 onion, peeled and quartered
4 cloves garlic, peeled
1kg ripe tomatoes, quartered
3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/3 cup worcestershire sauce (use Thermoconverts recipe)
1 tsp salt

Method
Put onion and garlic in TMX bowl and cut finely speed 7 / 3 secs
Add oil and Sauté on Varoma temp / speed 1 / 2-3 mins
Add all the remaining ingredients and blitz speed 9 / 3 secs
Cook with MC off Varoma temp / 30 mins / speed 1
Put MC back on and blitz speed 9 / 30 secs - be careful it's hot!
Strain the sauce through a fine sieve into a heatproof bowl.  You will end up with about 750 - 800 mls of liquid and lots of tomato pulp in the sieve.  If you prefer a chunkier sauce add a couple of tablespoons of the pulp back into the liquid.
Return the liquid to the bowl, if it needs thickening add about 3 tbls of cornflour and cook 3 mins / 80C / speed 2
Bottle.

This recipe is converted from the Women's Weekly Preserves cookbook

Looks great! I actually just bought this book and had this recipe tagged to make at some stage. Your conversion looks fantastic- well done!

Seeing its BBQ weather here in the UK I thought I would give this a whirl for Cookie's Challenge.
Just a few tweaks for next time:
Put the basket in place when cooking with the MC off as it will stop the sauce spitting over your walls :D
Reduce the sugar,it's a little sweet.
Doesn't need the step putting thought a fine sieve because the TM did such a fine job of pureeing it.
If you add the cornflour( like I did) you need to add extra time cooking as it tasted " floury" after the initial cooking.
Thanks Snappy,I know my GS will love this ;D

Thanks CC, this one will remind members there are heaps of categories from which to choose for the current challenge - lots of hidden gems in every section.  A bit like a treasure hunt.
