This is the recipe I've used for years . sooo good!

Garlic and Apple Ketchup

750g apples, 250g garlic, 1.5lt malt vinegar, thumb-size piece root ginger-bruised, 3 chillies-split, 2 tbsp whole cloves, 4 tsp salt, 4 tbsp peppercorns, 500g treacle.
Chop apples, skin and cores included Separate garlic cloves but don't peel. Combine all ingredients except treacle in large pot and boil gently for approx 1 hour or until apples pulpy and garlic soft. Rub through strainer or mouli and return to cleaned pot. Add treacle and bring to the boil
Boil 5 min and then pour into hot, clean bottles and seal.
This sauce is best if left to mature several months before using - but it's worth the wait!

Can't wait to buy some treacle and try this. It sounds great. Thanks for sharing.

Sorry to hijack, but I'm intrigued by the garlic gravy type sauce! Sounds like it'd go well with steak!

That's what I'm assuming it will be great for mctavi. I've got all the ingredients now and will start making it tomorrow. So I'll soon find out. The recipe sounds lush. Mmmmmm.

I made this today (second recipe posted). Not sure if it was supposed to be a thick sauce! Mines turned out a bit on the thin side. It will still be really nice I reckon. Fingers crossed.
Don't know if we can wait three months before using it though!
