Ingredients
- 4kg white onions
- 300g canned organic whole peeled tomatoes
- 1 tsp coarse salt
- 1 tsp sugar
- 2 tsp lard or extra virgin olive oil
- 3 slices of toasted bread
Directions
Step 1
Peel and thinly slice the onions, add the sugar and coarse salt, mix and leave to macerate in a covered container for two to four hours.
Step 2
When ready, put the onions with their water and the lard (or oil) in a deep frying pan or skillet and sauté gently over a very low heat, stirring frequently, until the onions turn a nice rich golden colour.
Step 3
If they start to stick, add a splash of water. Chop the tomatoes and add to the pan. Continue cooking for a couple of hours over a low heat, stirring frequently. The result should be a creamy sauce.
