ingredients
1/2 cup golden raisins
1/3 cup coarsely chopped onions
2 cloves garlic
1/3 cup tomato paste
1 1/3 cup cider vinegar, divided
4 large ripe bananas, peeled and cut into chunks
3 cups water (more as needed)
1/2 cup dark brown sugar (packed)
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 cup light corn syrup
2 teaspoons ground allspice
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
2 tablespoons dark rum
directions
Combine the raisins, onions , garlic, tomato paste and 1/3 cup of the vinegar in the container of a food processor. Process the mixture until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a large, heavy saucepan.
Add the banana chunks and another 1/3 cup vinegar to the food processor container. Process the mixture until smooth. Transfer the banana mixture to the saucepan. Add the remaining 2/3 cup vinegar, water, brown sugar, salt and cayenne pepper.
Bring the mixture in the saucepan to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently. Reduce the heat to low and cook the ketchup, uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 1 1/4 hours. If the ketchup threatens to stick to the bottom of the pan at any point, add extra water, up to 1 cup.
Add the corn syrup, allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg, pepper and cloves to the ketchup. Cook the ketchup over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, for 15 minutes longer, or until it is thick enough to coat a metal spoon. Stir in the rum. Remove the ketchup from the heat and let it cool a few minutes.
Force the ketchup through a fine sieve to strain it, pressing down hard on the solids. Remove the ketchup from the heat and let it cool to room temperature. Store the banana ketchup, covered in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.

I'm glad this turned out good because it makes a lot. Now I just need to find uses for it. Used it on a grilled chicken sandwich so far but not sure where else to use it as it's not quite as versatile as something like regular ketchup. I think it will make a good dipping sauce for things but I haven't decided what yet. Not sure how long it will keep in the fridge so I'll try to experiment soon!
