This condiment, inspired by the many Cuban fritas we sampled in Miami, is a balanced blend of smoky, savory, sweet, tangy and spicy flavors. Butter, used to sauté the onion, added a richness that oil did not. We liked the sauce best made with Cholula Hot Sauce or Crystal Hot Sauce. Use this as you would ketchup—on eggs, potatoes and, of course, burgers.

cups

Tip

Don’t use double-concentrated tomato paste, which usually is packaged in tubes. The flavor will overwhelm the sauce.

45 minutes

Ingredients

  • 4

    tablespoons (½ stick) salted butter

Fantastic!
This is so tasty; I can’t wait to pair it on everything from potatoes to meat to eggs. I’m a true “ketchup head” according to my ketchup hating husband. This is the most sophisticated ketchup I have tasted.
