INSTRUCTIONS
Roughly chop the tomatoes and put them in a processor or blender
container. Add the onion, garlic, chiles, herbs, salt pepper, and
sugar. Blend. Stir down everything in the blender, scraping the
sides, pulsing themachine and keeping a little texture--tis is not a
completely smooth sauce.
Heat the oil in a deep pot and add the blended ingredients. Bring to
a boil and boil uncovered for 2 mnutes. Taste for seasoning. If the
tomatoes are acidic, add an additional tablespoon of sugar and
continue cooking for 3 minutes.
