    Spiced Cherry Tomatoes

    Ingredients

    • 1 kg firm red or yellow cherry tomatoes
    • 10-12 mint or basil leaves
    • Sugar-free sweet vinegar (recipe below)

    Instructions

    Lightly prick each tomato in several places with a toothpick. Arrange in the sterilized jars with the mint or basil. Pour in the sugar-free sweet vinegar but make sure that it covers the tomatoes by at least 2.5cm. Make sure there are no air pockets. Seal These are ready to eat in about 4-6 weeks but they improve with longer keeping. Shelf life: 1 year.
