Chili Tomato Jam - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 1/4 lbs ripe tomatoes, peeled and chopped
    2 1/2 cups sugar
    8 None red chili peppers, sliced
    1/4 cup lemon juice or lime juice
    1/3 cup white wine vinegar
    2 tbsp fish sauce
    2 tsp sea salt
    None None Grilled squid, arugula and lemon wedges, to serve
Preparation
    Place tomatoes and sugar in a non-metallic bowl. Cover with plastic wrap. Let stand at room temperature overnight.
    Transfer mixture to a shallow, heavy-bottomed saucepan with remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil on high heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 1-1 1/4 hours until thick and mixture reaches setting point. (To test for a jam's setting point, place a small quantity of the mixture onto a saucer. Allow to cool. If its ready, it will gel and wrinkle when moved.)
    Pour into hot sterilized jars and seal immediately. Store in a cool dry place. Once opened, store in the refrigerator.
    Serving Suggestion: grilled squid, arugula and lemon wedges. Or use in stir-fries, on burgers and in salad dressings.
