Cut the onion into pieces, put a little bit of oil in your pan and add the sliced onion and tomato puree together in the pan and fry until the onions are translucent. (it is very importent to put them in together, for the taste of the end product)

Time for a Coffee Break

Put the lid on youre pan and let it simmer for about 15 minutes occasionaly stir it, this is a good time to get yourself a nice cup of coffee.

The Last Step

After about 15 minutes get the lid off of your pan and let it simer for another 5 to 10 minutes depending on the amount of watehr that was added in step 5, this has to be done for 2 very important reasons, first of all the excess liquid wil vaporize and second every body in the house will come towards the kitchen wondering what it is that smells so good.

You can eat this with bread or rice, both is delicious.

Enjoy your meal!
