Homemade sugar-free ketchup

Ingredients:

  • 2 tsp canola oil
  • 3 thinly sliced yellow onions
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2 roasted red peppers
  • 156-mL can of tomato paste
  • 1 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/8 tsp salt

Method:

Heat canola oil in a medium saucepan over medium.

Add thinly sliced yellow onions and cook, stirring often with a wooden spoon until very soft and browned, 20 min.

Add water, scraping brown bits from the bottom of the pan, and stir until no liquid remains, 1 to 2 min.

Stir in the rinsed, patted dry, and chopped roasted red peppers and tomato paste until warmed through, 2 to 3 min.

Remove from heat, then add apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, and salt. Season with fresh pepper.

Scrape into a blender and whirl until smooth. Let cool to room temperature and refrigerate in an airtight container up to a week.

Kitchen Tip: Press ketchup through a fine-mesh sieve for an extra-smooth texture.
