Level: Easy
Yield: about 1 1/2 quarts

Ingredients

  1. 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  2. 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  3. 4 cups diced canned Italian plum tomatoes
  4. 1 cup tomato juice
  5. 2 garlic cloves, peeled
  6. 1 large jalapeno chile, stemmed, seeded if desired

Instructions

  1. Heat the vegetable oil in a medium skillet over moderate heat. Cook the onion until soft, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a food processor fitted with the metal blade or a blender
  2. Add the remaining ingredients except the salt and puree, in batches if you are using a blender, until smooth. Pass through a medium strainer, pressing with a spatula or wooden spoon to push through as much pulp as possible. Pour into a sauce pan and add the salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook, uncovered, 20 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning. Store in the refrigerator 2 to 3 days or in the freezer for weeks.
