- 5 cups of white vinegar
- 3 cups of white sugar
- 1 tablespoon of salt
- 3 cups of apricot jam
- 1 onion chopped

I have used up 20kg of chillis making this recipe. It is spectacular, just the best. I have had sore hands, even though I wore gloves, but it is all worth it in the end. This recipe is a keeper.
