Ingredients

1 pound fresh figs, quartered

8 ounces Roma tomatoes, quartered lengthwise 

1 cup apple cider vinegar 

1/3 cup sugar 

1/4 cup sorghum syrup

1 teaspoon Thai-style chili paste 

1 teaspoon coriander 

1 teaspoon cumin 

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon 

1 fresh bay leaf 

Salt

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Place the figs and tomatoes skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Roast until they start to brown and soften, about 40 minutes. Cool, and then remove the tomato skins.
  3. In a food processor, combine the figs, tomatoes, vinegar, sugar, sorghum, chili paste, coriander, cumin and cinnamon and pulse until combined.
  4. Put this mixture in a saucepan with the bay leaf and cook over medium-high heat until the mixture begins to boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring often, until it thickens and reduces by a third, about 30 minutes--it will be thick enough so that when you stir it, you'll be able to see the bottom of the pot. Remove the bay leaf and discard. Season with salt.

I've made this recipe at least 10 times. It is so good on turkey burgers or rosemary fries. My friends beg me to make it whenever we have potlucks, etc. Just need to keep thinking of more things I can put this on!
