Chilli Jam

500g chillies
500g red capsicums roughly chopped 
5 cups sugar
1/2 cup wine vinegar
Juice of one lemon.

Wear gloves chillies burn....
Remove the stalks from the chillies and zoom with the capsicums in a food processor till mushed.
Place in heavy based pan with all other ingredients and bring to the boil stirring occasionally until slightly darkened and thickened. I think this took about 3/4 hour.
Bottle into sterilised jars and seal immediately.
