Nici’s Amazing Tomato Sauce  
Hot chips and homemade tomato sauce. Does it get any better? This rich tomato sauce is absolutely fabulous and I make a batch every year, some for my pantry, some for gifts.  
Makes about 2 litres  2kg fresh tomatoes, chopped roughly 400g can crushed tomatoes  2 large apples, chopped roughly 2 large onions, chopped roughly  1 cup brown sugar  1 cup white or raw sugar  1 cup malt vinegar  1 cup apple cider vinegar  1 cup red wine vinegar  2 tablespoons salt  1 teaspoon black pepper 1 teaspoon ground all spice  ½ teaspoon ground cloves  

Bring all the ingredients to the boil in a large pot and simmer it vigorously for about 2 hours until it is completely pulpy and it ought to have thickened a bit by then too.  
In batches, put it through a blender until smooth. Try not to over blend as it will lighten the colour to an orange hue.  
Sterilise bottles or jars by heating in an oven set at 100 C for 15 minutes.  
Pour hot sauce into hot bottles and jars and seal with lids. Wipe clean and cool.
