Step 1

First, heat oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Once hot, add onion and separate into smaller pieces until translucent and soft, about 5 minutes. Light browning of onions adds flavor.

Step 2

Next, add garlic and cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until golden and soft.

Step 3

Last, reduce heat to low-medium and add tomatoes. Simmer until mixture is jam-like in texture and ingredients are no longer raw, about 30 minutes.
