This Chunky Onion and Tomato Relish is a perfect accompaniment to our signature Boerewors. The rich, caramelized onions and tomatoes complement the savoury goodness of the Boerewors, creating a delightful flavour harmony.


Ingredients:

- 2 Tins of Diced Italian Tomatoes (Alternatively, 8 fresh diced tomatoes)

- 2 Onions, roughly chopped

- Salt & Pepper, to taste

- 2 tbsp Mrs Balls Chutney

- 1 tbsp Sugar (for caramelization)

- 1 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce

- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil


Instructions:

1. Caramelizing the Onions:

- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
