TOMATO CHILLI (CHILE) JAM
Chilli jam is a very popular item in Australia. My hubby even likes it on his vanilla and/or chocolate ice cream. I finally came up with this recipe -- that is easy-to-make, and not too hot and not sweet. The fish sauce gives the flavour an Asian twist. As an aside, my tablespoon is equal to 3 teaspoons. For a hotter result, you can leave the seeds in the chillies, or simply use more.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a two-quart saucepan. Add mustard seeds and cook until they pop.
- Add onion and stir for about 30 seconds, then add all other ingredients.
- Bring to a boil and cook for 15-20 minutes. Keep an eye on it and stir frequently. You don't want it to burn.
- When the jam has thickened to your preference, turn off heat and allow to cool for 10 minutes. Then zap with a stick blender to puree it slightly. You want it to stay on the chunky side.
- Bottle and store in the fridge. Use within two weeks. I find it improves with age.
