1
Playing around with sweet fruit and hot peppers yesterday resulted in this amazing relish to eat over our broiled tilapia!
2
I used a food processor and pulsed the blackberries 3 times, carefully (dont liquify).
3
Chop onions, hot and sweet peppers (and the tomato and strawberries, if using).
4
In a large skillet, melt butter, then saute onions, garlic, hot peppers, and sweet peppers.
5
Add in blackberries and heat until simmering.
6
If using, add in the strawberries and tomato.
7
Simmer on medium for a few minutes.
8
Stir in the lemon juice and salt liberally.
9
I had about half a cup of my spicy sweet pico de gallo left over (with tomatoes in it), so I tossed it in.
10
That is why I said it is optional to add them in.
11
Its fine without them!
