No much to do in the garden.
Besides for planting some carrot and baby spinach seeds there was not a lot to do in the garden.
Therefore the kids and I tackled the last apples and made half into a yummy rhubarb and apple crumble and the other I made apple and rhubard butter.
I didin't follow a recipe but this is what I did: cored, peeled and chopped lots of apples and about 10 stalks of rhubarb. I steamed them then added them to a pot with 1 cup of sugar, 1 teaspoon of cinamon and 1 teaspoon mixed spice. I then let it reduce and put it into clean sterilized jars.
We then prepared the chillies by washing them and taking off the stalks. Then I made the same pickling liquid as last week and pickled 4 jars of them.
I also wanted to make a chilli relish so I used about 20 chopped chillies with 2 tomatoes, 1 onion, 125ml sugar and a tablespoon of garlic. I boiled this up then blended it up with my stick blender and put it in a jar. My hubby tasted it and said it was super hot!
We have so many chillies now that a friend will be the lucky recipient of a jar or two!
