- 2) Cook onions on a pan with oil till soft. Add brown sugar, tomato-jalopeno paste, vinegar, salt, and the rest of the olive oil, bring to a low simmer while continuously mixing. This is to prevent the paste from burning.

- * It is important to ensure that the jalopenos and the tomatoes are as dry as possible. To do this it is best to use roma tomatoes. Drain the liquid and take out the seeds. Dice and add salt to the tomatoes. Let it sit in a coriander and drain out the liquid again.
