Tomato/BBQ Sauce

Like the Watties one. Sort of.
Had a look at various recipes here and in the end used a BBQ sauce recipe and modified it to taste;

1.5kg tomatoes, peeled, cored and squeezed all the seeds out, then stuck the pulp through the blender - so ended up with I don't know - 800grams-ish maybe!
3 onions, sliced sauted in oil. Then put through the blender once they were soft
1/2 TBsp fresh ginger
1/4 Tbsp chilli paste
1Tbsp salt
100g brown sugar (and that was a wee bit too much)
100ml red wine vinegar
4 tbsps (ish) malt vinegar
4 tbsps soya sauce
1 tbsp worcerstershire sauce (lea and perrins)
1/4 tbsp smokey bbq sauce (left from ages ago, fake smoke basically)

It made 4 x 300ml jars.
And it's yum, a wee bit sweet but quite tangy. The smokey stuff was a last minute addition, needed something so tried it and it worked, just gave it a wee smokiness.

So far got from the crop:
4 x 1l of tomato juice
22 x400ml jars of relish
4 x 300ml jars sauce

Running out of ideas now.

If you run out of ideas then make "passata di pomodoro":

You can use it for everything in winter from soup to pasta sauce to pizza sauce to adding to stews, baked beans etc.
