Wash and chop the tomatoes, removing the white stems. Peel and core the apples, then chop them. Peel and chop the onions. Cook all ingredients for 2 hours while stirring, strain through a fine sieve, and fill jars or bottles while still hot. Then boil them for 10 minutes at 100°C. It’s perfect with all kinds of grilled food, especially meat, like steak and sausages.
