- To broil tomatoes:Many Mexican recipes call for tomatoes to be asodos (roasted).
- Traditionally they are put onto a warm comal and cooked till the skin is wrinkled and brown and the flesh is soft right through - this takes about 20 to 25 min for an 8-oz tomato. However, since this method is very messy, it is best to line a shallow metal pan with foil and put the tomatoes in it. Place them under a warm broiler - don't have the flame too high or possibly the tomato will burn without cooking through - and turn them from time to time so which they cook through proportionately - the skin will be blistered and charred. A medium tomato will take about 20 min. Blend the tomato, skin, core, and seeds to a fairly smooth sauce. The skin and core give both body and flavor to the sauce. And never mind if the skin is charred: which adds character, too. If the skin is very badly blackened and hard in places, then remove a little of it. This method of cooking tomatoes makes for a very rich-flavored sauce.
- Heat the oil, add in the blended tomatoes and salt, and cook over a medium flame for about 8 min till it has thickened and is well seasoned.
