Sweet & Tangy Barbecue Sauce

It also makes a great topping for cheese sandwiches !


This is a simple, delicious sauce which goes well with hamburgers, as a relish for cold meats & cheese, or as a sauce for chicken or pork.

I keep it in a screw top jar in the fridge, and usually serve it cold. (My fussy husband gives it two thumbs up - so you know it must be good !)


Sweet & Tangy Barbecue Sauce

2 Tbsp Olive Oil
1 Large Onion, chopped
1 tsp Tomato Paste
2 Tbsp Vinegar (Balsamic works well)
2 Tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
2 tsp Mustard Powder
2 Tbsp Brown Sugar
150 ml Water

Fry the onion in the oil until soft. Stir in the tomato paste and cook for another couple of minutes, then add the rest of the ingredients. Allow to simmer until mixture has thickened slightly & onions are soft. (You can add more/less vinegar or sugar according to your taste).
