When boiling it will reduce a little, then add 4 tomatoes in medium size pieces, (for round tomatoes approx 8 pieces each) cook for 15 more minutes. Finally, add 1⁄2 teaspoon salt, 1⁄4 teaspoon garlic powder, dash of pepper, ½ tablespoon ground oregano, 1 tablespoon, unsalted butter. Keep it boiling for 1 more minute.

TIPS:

  • It is very important to add the salt at the end, otherwise it could turn salty when evaporated.

  • If you wish you can peel the tomatoes before adding them to the pot.
