Olive Oil, Extra Virgin
1 tbsp
Tomato paste, canned
1/2 medium
Yellow onion
(grated or finely chopped)
1 tbsp
Chili powder
2 tsp
Garlic powder
2 tsp
Fennel seed
1 tsp

1/2 tsp
Cayenne pepper
397 gm
Whole tomato, canned
2 tsp
Apple cider vinegar
2 tsp

Instructions
Carefully heat the oil in a heavy saucepan. Stir in the tomato paste. Add the onion and fry until soft and glossy over medium heat.
Add a couple of tablespoons of water and simmer for 5 minutes.
Grind the spices and add them to the saucepan together with the tomatoes and the vinegar. Add salt.
Bring to a boil, lower the heat and let simmer for another 15-20 minutes. Mix, using an immersion blender, until smooth and let cool. If you want a thicker sauce let it simmer longer, until it reaches the desired consistency.
