     +    
Red Pepper Relish

Place 100ml of olive oil into a pan on a medium heat and add the onion, pepper, thyme, salt and sugar, cooking for 5-8 minutes with no colour at all.

Add the julienne of red pepper with the remaining salt, paprika and cayenne pepper. Sweat this all on a medium heat with the lid on so the juice comes out but stir now and again to make sure that it does not catch on the bottom of the pan.

After approx.15 -20 minutes add the vinegar and cook this down to almost nothing, then add the rest of the olive oil and basil at the end.

     +    
Cherry tomato & shallot sauce

Heat a pan on a medium heat and add the olive oil, onion, shallot, garlic, thyme salt and pepper and cook for 3-4 minutes until a little translucent but no colour at all. Then add the white wine and reduce until it has almost all gone.

Add the cherry tomatoes and the sugar, bringing to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes stirring now and again. Add the tomato paste and cook for a further 45 minutes to reduce and thicken. Stir the sauce now and again, then check the seasoning at the end once it has thickened. This can be kept in the fridge for at least 5-6 days or it can be frozen.

     +    
Grilled sourdough toast

Drizzle a thick slice of sour dough in olive oil and a little Maldon salt. Place onto the chargrill, then caramelize well until a nice dark colour on both sides.
