The 'What else can you do with tomato ketchup' challenge

Former_MSE_Megan

Hi everyone,

We've got a challenge for you! Barring putting it on the side of your plate, what else do you use tomato ketchup for? We’re thinking mainly cooking and recipes here, but go on surprise us and tell us below!

It's meant as a condiment, why would you do anything else with it? I can't imagine a recipe where tomato puree would not be a better alternative.

We wash our dog with it when he rolls in fox poo, just rub it in and rinse off thoroughly and it neutralises the pong .

Use it on bleached blonde hair or highlights to eliminate the greenish tinge chlorine can give it on holiday.

OH uses tomato ketchup when he is making paneer curry.

I use it in a veggie stir fry along with soy sauce and honey.

Both taste yummy

Mixed with soy sauce and a spoon of mustard it makes a lovely marinade for grilled pork or chicken - add some 5 spice for a great sticky 'Chinese' sauce.

Another vote for spag bol and I also use it when making my version of sweet and sour chicken.

Very curious how you both discovered that ketchup worked in those circumstances.
Hard to imagine a conversation that went "dog's rolled in some poo. Hey! Let's cover him in tomato ketchup".

I used to use the last knockings of the jar swilled out into baked bean risotto. Don't eat carbs anymore so beans and rice are no longer on the menu.
