Welcome to the SMASH Kitchen, where I celebrate the joy of cooking with wholesome, minimally processed ingredients that support your hormonal health and weight management goals.
If you enjoy a Sweet Chilli Sauce but don't like the thought of eating all the sugar in it, SMASH Chilli Jam is a great alternative for you. You will get maximum flavour and heat, but without the damaging ingredients that come in many store bought chilli sauces.
SMASH Chilli Jam is quick and easy to make - as always, and once you've made it, you will never go back to buying store bought chilli sauce again. You can adapt the spiciness of the jam to suit your own preference. This is hot!!
