Tomato chilli jam

This is the first time I am sharing a recipe in my blog as I always hated cooking. But I couldn't resist taking picture of this jam. The recipe is originally from the Indian master chef Sanjeev Kapoor. So here it comes...

Ingredients:
Tomatoes- 1/2 kg
Fresh chillies (either red or green)-5 or6
Sugar- 1 cup
Chopped garlic- 2 tbsp
Chopped ginger- 1 tbsp
Vinegar- 3 tbsp
Soya sauce- 1 tbsp

Method:
Heat a pan, add tomatoes, garlic and ginger. Cook for 5 minutes. Then, add chillies, sugar, vinegar and soya sauce. Let it cook in low flame till the sugar forms a syrup and thickens. Remember not to thicken it too much as it hardens once it cools down. Store it in a bottle and use it as and when you want. The sweet, sour and spicy taste will linger in your mouth for a very long time.
