Directions

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.

Its fine without them!
