Green Tomato Pickle

1. Chop up the tomatoes into small pieces and put in a colander. Add finely chopped onion. Sprinkle with 1 tsp salt and mix in. Leave to sit while you prepare the other ingredients.
2. Pour the vinegar into a saucepan and bring to nearly boiling. Add the green tomatoes and onion (do not rinse the salt off) to the vinegar and then put all the other ingredients in.
3. Simmer for 30 minutes. There should still be a bit of bite to some of the pieces of green tomato and the flavour should be nice and strong.

 Green Tomato Jam

2. Add lemon juice and very little water - just enough to cook the tomatoes.
3. Boil for about 30 minutes until soft. 
4.  Add sugar and boil for about ¾ hour or until set.
