Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp avocado or other mild tasting oil
  • 1/2 cup diced shallot
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 cup diced rhubarb
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup molasses
  • 2 canned chipotle chillies
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp adobo sauce from canned chipotles
  • 2/3 cup cider vinegar
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • 1/4 tsp coriander

Instructions

  • Heat oil in saucepan and add diced shallot, stirring and cooking on medium-low until softened but not brown. About 3-4 minutes. Add minced garlic and diced rhubarb and continue cooking and stirring for 4-5 more minutes.
