Tis done!

I bought a 15 litre pan today, and the puree

I now have several thousands jars cooling and a strong smell of vinegar around the house.

Will try some tonight in a stir fry

I hope you like it, or else you'll have a lot to use up

18 jars - well done. I just showed this to my son who is a great lover of this sauce, he said "well done" too. Great photos. . . . . .

Oh I also meant to post this the other day, but ran out of time, but the curry sauce goes in the jam jars very well too, add a bit of extra water or stock to make it easier to get in the jars, I think it makes about 6 or 8. (now she goes off to find her recipe book to see what other trouble she can cause

)

You carry on causing trouble I am enjoying it

Oh and...the beef curry last night, left some sauce (which Mark nealry nicked, he is so greedy!). I added a load of mushrooms (needed using) and a bit of cauliflower. We had it today for lunch today, with jacket potatoes

great to use every little bit

Wow, it certainly packs a punch....just on the edge of too hot for me, although I am enjoying it. Mark is enjoying, he likes it hot q12

It's very tasty though

Certainly if it's a touch too hot for you then just a little less next time will be fine.

I think ground Chilli will be Cayenne Pepper, Chilli powder in good ole Blighty comes in mild or hot formulas and has other stuff added - salt, cumin, oregano and garlic (Tesco) so the chilli element will be slightly less powerful, which is why I put a smaller amount for cayenne, but it's my fault really cos in my college days there was no such thing as chilli powder - it was all Cayenne pepper, so I know these things and shouldn't assume that everyone else does too - there's no embarrassed emoticon

or should that be

It's okay...I did ponder whilst looking at what I had. I have some very OLD cayenne. I could have asked you.

I've put the photos on Facebook and there is excitement amongst my friends, all clamouring for the recipe...I have pointed them in this direction.

You'll soon be a star q14
