Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat 1 tbsp oil in a small pan over medium heat. Add 1 tsp mustard seeds and cook until they splutter, about 1 minute.

  2. Step 2

    Add 4 chopped tomatoes and 1 chopped green chili. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes are soft and mushy, about 8-10 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Stir in 1/4 cup chopped cilantro and 1/2 tsp salt. Cook for 2 more minutes until fragrant.

  4. Step 4

    Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Blend until smooth, or leave chunky if preferred. Serve warm or at room temperature.
