Sweet chilli jam

Method

1. Put the whole chillies in a food processor or mini chopper and whizz 
to a rough paste. Scrape into a large heavy-based saucepan set over a medium heat and add the other ingredients. Put a saucer in the freezer (to test for setting).
2. Stir until the sugar dissolves, turn up the heat and bring the jam to a rolling boil for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, then take off the heat.
3. Spoon a little jam onto the saucer from the freezer. Return it to the freezer for 
5 minutes, then push the jam with your finger. If it wrinkles, it’s ready. If not, return the pan to the heat and the saucer to the freezer and boil for 5 minutes, then check the set again. When set, turn off the heat and leave to stand for 5 minutes.
