TOMATO CHILLI (CHILE) JAM
Chilli jam is a very popular item in Australia. My hubby even likes it on his vanilla and/or chocolate ice cream. I finally came up with this recipe -- that is easy-to-make, and not too hot and not sweet. The fish sauce gives the flavour an Asian twist. As an aside, my tablespoon is equal to 3 teaspoons. For a hotter result, you can leave the seeds in the chillies, or simply use more.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a two-quart saucepan. Add mustard seeds and cook until they pop.
- Add onion and stir for about 30 seconds, then add all other ingredients.
- Bring to a boil and cook for 15-20 minutes. Keep an eye on it and stir frequently. You don't want it to burn.
- When the jam has thickened to your preference, turn off heat and allow to cool for 10 minutes. Then zap with a stick blender to puree it slightly. You want it to stay on the chunky side.
- Bottle and store in the fridge. Use within two weeks. I find it improves with age.
TOMATO CHILE JAM
If ketchup put on $300 Japanese cult-brand jeans, this is what it would taste like: global, hip, sexy. This formula - infinitely adaptable, good with cheese, with fish, with spring rolls, as a chutney, as a sambal - began with the New Zealand chef Peter Gordon and was adapted by Darina Allen, the Irish cooking teacher. It appears in her book "Forgotten Skills of Cooking," the first book anyone interested in craft cooking should read.

Steps:
- Open the can of tomatoes and drain the liquid into a food processor or blender. Reserve the tomatoes.
- Slice 3 to 6 fresh red chile peppers (depending on their heat) and add to the blender or processor with garlic, ginger and fish sauce. Blend until smooth.
- Pour into a pan, add the diced tomatoes and vinegar and sugar. Simmer until thick and syrupy, about an hour. Natural pectin in the tomatoes gives the sauce its jammy consistency.
- When cool, transfer to containers or jars, and keep refrigerated.
