How to make your own ketchup

Ketchup from the supermarket often contains sugar. A healthy alternative is to make your own ketchup.

Get started
Heat 1.5 kg of ripe tomatoes with two red chopped onions, 1 tbsp olive oil, 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar, pepper and salt in the oven at 200 degrees. Roast everything for 30 minutes and then put it in a saucepan.

Add half a teaspoon of cinnamon and a pinch of cayenne pepper. Puree with the immersion blender until smooth and then thicken the sauce over a low heat.

This recipe comes from the article 'When your healthy lifestyle comes between you' from the September issue of Santé. A healthy lifestyle doesn't have to be difficult if your partner isn't so healthy. Feel free to eat a burger (recipe can be found on page 41 in Santé) with a dollop of homemade ketchup. You happy, he happy.
