• 1 bunch cilantro, chopped finely
• 3 cup water or vegetable stock

1. Take the tomatoes, shallots, ginger, garlic and green chillies in a pressure cooker.

4. Peel the skin off the tomatoes once the pressure is gone, and the tomatoes are cool to the touch.
5. Blend the vegetables until smooth.
6. Strain the blended mixture to get rid of the seeds and skin of the tomatoes.
7. In a large pot on high heat, take some olive oil.
8. Add the cloves, bay leaf.
