Ingredients
- 5 kg ripe tomatoes
- 4 red bell peppers
- 3 large onions
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 100 g olive oil
Preparation
- Prepare the Vegetables
- Wash the tomatoes, chop them into small pieces, and remove excess seeds.
- Wash the peppers, remove their seeds, and chop them into small pieces.
- Peel and finely chop the onions.
- Blend the Ingredients
- Place all the ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth.
- Strain the Mixture
- Pour the blended mixture into a clean cotton pillowcase or cheesecloth and hang it for 4-5 hours to drain excess liquid. This step reduces the cooking time significantly.
- Cook the Sauce
- Transfer the drained mixture into a pot. Add salt, brown sugar, and olive oil.
- Cook over medium heat for 40-45 minutes, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon to prevent sticking or burning.
- Store the Sauce
- Once the sauce has thickened, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly.
- Transfer it into sterilized jars, ensuring the mixture is covered with a layer of olive oil to preserve it.
- Store the jars in the refrigerator. Each time you use some sauce, add more olive oil to maintain the seal and extend its shelf life.
