OVEN ROASTED GRAPE TOMATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

• Strain off the water and pass the grapes through a good mill or force through a sieve.
• Throw away the skins and any seeds and weight the resulting pulp.
• Place the pulp into a heavy-based pan with the required quantity of sugar.
• Cook until the pulp becomes very thick and is difficult to stir.
• If the fruit begins to stick and burn, remove it from the pot straight away and continue in a clean pot.
