Ingredients: 1 kg tomatoes
hot water enough to submerge the tomatoes
Directions: Make a cross sign with a light cut, on the base of the tomatoes(not on the stalk side).
Place the tomatoes in a bowl, boil some water and pour over the tomatoes to cover.
When cool enough to handle, peel the tomatoes (the cross sign will make this easier).
Chop the tomatoes roughly and blend in a blender and strain.
In the microwave, prick the tomatoes and place in a dish. Cover and on HI for 4 minutes, peel and puree.
1 kilo of tomatoes yields 4 cups of puree.
