(Oldstuff) Tomato Chilli Dip

Ideal with salted tortilla chips and a good beer (Becks, San Miguel etc).

Serves: Loads, as a side dish.

Ingredients:

• 1x tin tomatoes
• 1x large onion chopped finely
• 2x green chillies finely chopped
• 1x hot red chilli finely chopped (optional)
• 2x teaspoon of sugar
• 1x large clove garlic (crushed)
• 1/4x teaspoon of turmeric
• 1x teaspoon of mixed curry powder
• 1/3x cup of cooking oil
• 1/4-1/2x teaspoons of chilli powder (optional)

Method:

Heat oil in a pan, add onions and cook gently. Add tomatoes only (remove the liquid - maybe have a bloody Mary or two ;)) and keep stirring until tomatoes are broken up and mixed with onions. Add all other ingredients and stir well.

Simmer for 20 minutes, stirring regularly to avoid burning onto the bottom of the pan. Continue cooking until liquid nearly gone and oil rising to the top. The oil can be drained off if you're going to eat the same day, otherwise leave in the mix as it acts as a preservative.
