Grandma's Tomato Sauce

We are in full tomato season and it is the best time to enjoy homemade sauces and to make preserves. The fried tomato that we propose today has, how could it be otherwise, a lot of tomato, but also a little onion and green pepper.

Then we will grind everything, so of those ingredients we will only have their flavor because they will not be seen.

It can keep in mason jars. Keep in mind that the jars have to be very clean and that they have to be cooked afterwards in a water bath, as is done with homemade preserves.
