Ingredient Notes

- Tomatoes: Use fresh, ripe tomatoes for the best flavor. Roma or plum work well since they’re less watery, and you can mix in cherry tomatoes for extra sweetness.
- Onions: I prefer to use red onions as they add a stronger, sharper taste.
- Extra virgin olive oil: adds depth. In case it's not available, sunflower or avocado oil works too.
- Vegetable Broth: Homemade broth tastes best, but store-bought works fine.
Step-by-Step Process

- Peel the garlic, cut the tomatoes into thick slices, Place in a baking tray, drizzle some olive oil, and season with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika.

- Sauté chopped onions on medium heat for 2 - 3 minutes until slightly golden.
