This burger relish is absolutely outstanding. This is a close copy of the original Wimpy franchise burger relish, which is famous across the globe.
Ingredients
  • 150g Finely chopped onion
  • 15g Finely chopped garlic
  • 600g Peeled and chopped tomato
  • 150ml Red wine vinegar
  • 75g Sugar
  • 100g Finely chopped gherkin
  • 50g Butter
  • 15ml Paprika
  • 15ml Tapioca flour or cornflour mixed with 30ml water
Instructions
  1. Heat a pan over medium heat, melt the butter and fry the onion and garlic for 5 minutes until the onion is soft and translucent.
  2. Add the tomato and continue to fry for a further 10 minutes and most of the tomato has disintegrated. Add the paprika and fry for a further 2 minutes.
  3. Pour in the sugar and the red wine vinegar. Stir this until the sugar has dissolved, bring it back to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer the relish for 30 minutes, stirring every minute or so.
  4. By this stage the relish will be approaching the consistency of a runny jam. Stir the tapioca flour or cornflour into a little water and add this to the pan. Bring back to a boil and stir continuously for a minute until thickened.
  5. Remove the pan from the heat, stir in the finely chopped gherkin and season with salt to taste.
  6. Transfer the relish to a sterilized jar. The relish will last for months stored in your refrigerator.
  7. In the commercial version of this relish, food coloring is added to achieve the deep red color. Whether you add coloring is entirely up to you.
