Homemade Sandwich Pickle

[Risker]

Ingredients: (Makes ~1kg/2lb) 200g Tomato 175g Malt Vinegar 150g Carrot 150g Swede 150g Onion 100g Cucumber 100g Sugar 25g Garlic 25g Tomato Puree 25g Cornflour 10g Mustard Seeds 10g Salt Chop all ingredients finely and cook slowly in a large saucepan, stirring frequently until all ingredients are cooked and desired consistency is reached. Pour in to sterilised jars.

I actually make this in my breadmaker on the jam setting. The recipe scales well if you want to make more and it's very easy to adjust to your own taste just so long as you keep the proportions of vegetable/liquid/sugar/cornflour about the same.

That sounds good - I must see if my breadmaker would do it although a saucepan would be OK too.

I always worry about not sterilising the jars perfectly since reading about someone poisoning themselves that way, but I suppose it's not that likely compared with other things that might happen

You'll be pouring something seriously hot in to them anyway so it'll sterilise itself mostly.
