During summer we had an abundance of fresh tomatoes. Being raised on a truck farm we had the best vegetables and Mom knew exactly how to make a dish that complimented her entree and make her 9 children happy to eat and enjoy dinner.
Ingredients
- 10 to 12 fresh tomatoes cut in pieces
- 1 small yellow onions
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt (or more)
- 1/4 tsp red pepper/cayenne
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- oil
Directions
Step 1
In a 5 quart heavy bottom pot add 2 to 3 tablespoons of oil and sauté the sliced onion until wilted. Add the chopped tomatoes (Mom rarely peeled or skinned the tomatoes).
Step 2
Simmer over medium heat stirring often to prevent sticking.
Step 3
Cook until the liquid is reduced and the tomatoes mixture is slightly thickened.
