Several types of recipes use Cajun Stewed Tomatoes as one of their ingredients. I use the Rotel Brand tomatoes a majority of the time, which adds wonderful flavor to the majority of the Cajun dishes I prepare. But if you have time, this adds a really nice homemade touch and it also makes a wonderful side dish. This would be great for the bumper crop of tomatoes most people have in the summer.
Ingredients
- 6 - 8 ripe tomatoes
- 2 tbsp margarine
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 3/4 cup chopped celery
- 1/2 cup chopped green pepper
- 3 tbsp sugar (more or less)
- 1 small bay leaf
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp cayenne (more or less and optional)
Directions
Step 1
Core tomatoes; place in boiling water for about 15 to 20 seconds, then into ice water to cool quickly; peel. Cut tomatoes in wedges.
Step 2
In a crock pot, combine all the ingredients. Cover and cook on low 8-9 hours.
Step 3
Remove bay leaf. Sprinkle top with parsley, if desired. Serve as a side dish or freeze in portions for soups or other recipes.
