Sweet Chilli Jam

Every time I make chilli jam I end up putting it on virtually every meal I have and it never lasts in my fridge more than a couple of days.

The sweetness of it compliments many vegetables perfectly (try it on grilled eggplant). And the spiciness is the perfect addition to eggs (any style), as well as virtually all meats, particularly roast chicken.

I think I might start making double batches of chilli jam from now on.

Enjoy this delicious chilli jam recipe.
