Ketchup Substitute

Category: MiscellaneousCollection: Vegetarian Recipes

Ingredients

  • tomato(s)
  • salt and pepper (optional)

Directions

There are two ways of preparing the tomato as a substitute for
ketchup. One method is to boil the whole tomato in water and the
other is to microwave the whole tomato.

Boiling method:

Boil medium size tomato in a small pot of water (enough to cover the
tomato) until the tomoto sightly breaks. Add salt and pepper if you
want.

Microwave method:

Make sure you cut the sides of the tomoto as otherwise it may
burst and scatter in the microwave. Place the tomato in a bowl with
cuts on the side and cook for a minute.
