Country-Style Chili Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    8 large peaches (or use nectarines)
    5 large ripe tomatoes
    1 red onion, finely chopped
    1 large bell pepper (seeded and finely chopped into 1/2-inch pieces, use red or green peppers)
    1 -2 tablespoon fresh minced garlic
    2/3 cup white vinegar (or use cider vinegar)
    1/2 cup white sugar
    1 1/2 teaspoons salt (can use more to taste)
    1/2 teaspoon ginger powder
    1/2 teaspoon allspice
    1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
Preparation
    Slice the peaches or nectarines in half, discard the pits and coarsely chop the fruit into about 1/2-inch pieces.
    Peel the tomatoes if you wish, then chop into the same size pieces as the fruit.
    Place the peaches, tomatoes, onion, bell pepper and garlic in a large saucepan; stir in vinegar, sugar, salt, ginger, allspice and cinnamon, bring to a boil uncovered, stirring often over high heat.
    Reduce the heat to medium; boil gently uncovered, stirring occasionally until peaches become soft and the mixture thickens a little (about 20 minutes).
    Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue to simmer uncovered until the mixture is very thick like applesauce and a small amount of liquid remains (about 20-25 minutes, to prevent sticking to the pan stir frequently near end of cooking).
    Cool and pour into glass jars and chill for up to 3 weeks, or process in a water bath to store for a longer time.
