Method
- Peel the potatoes and cook them in the water until they are soft. About 1½ cups of broth should remain.
- While the potatoes are cooking, wash the tomatoes well and cut them into small pieces.
- Chop the onion. Cook the tomatoes with half of the onion for 15 or 20 minutes, stirring so they do not stick.
- Sauté the rest of the chopped onion in the hot fat.
- Pass the potatoes, along with the water they were cooked in and the tomatoes, through a strainer (or jibe).
- Add a little of this mixture to the sautéed onion and let it cook for 2 or 3 minutes.
- Mix everything together and pass it through the strainer or blender again.
- Season with salt, sugar and pepper to taste and simmer over low heat for about another ½ hour.
