Tomato Chokha

In Trinidad, tomato Chokha is often served as part of breakfast- but it’s actually a great side to any meal. There’s no need to peel the tomatoes before cooking them.

Add turmeric, tomatoes, and cilantro. Salt and pepper. Stir well and bring to a boil then reduce heat to low. Stir occasionally to ensure the tomato doesn’t stick. Simmer until it is falling apart, starting to dry, and pasty, 20-30 minutes.
