About

Making your own barbecue sauce is infinitely better than buying commercial products. It doesn’t take long and you might just gain a following.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, chopped

Method

Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and stir constantly for 5 minutes or until soft.

Remove from the heat, pour immediately into sterilised jars and seal. Allow to cool, then store in the refrigerator fo
