Instructions

  1. Peel the tomatoes after dipping them in boiling water for 30 seconds, then dice them.
  2. Fry the sliced onion in oil for 5 minutes until translucent.
  3. Add the tomatoes, salt, sugar and fenugreek, then reduce for 10 minutes over medium heat.
  4. Off the heat, stir in the crushed garlic, chopped chilli, vinegar and chopped coriander.
  5. Let it cool; the sauce should stay smooth and slightly tangy.

Variations and tips

Fresh version. Blend the raw sauce with a little oil for a brighter texture, with no cooking.
