Tomato  - 3
Onion  - 1/4
Jalapeno Pepper  - 1
Thyme  - 1 tsp
Oregano  - 1 tsp
Garlic Powder  - 1 tsp
Salt to taste

 Method:

First, we need to blanch tomatoes. Slightly slit the bottom of tje tomatos like this. It make it easier to peel off the skin. Cook 2 tomato to the boiling water for about 3-4 min. Then remove them from the water and allow it to get cool.

Once it came to the room temperature, peel off the tomato skin. Due to the slit we made earlier, we could easily peel of the skin like peeling off bananas. Dice 1 tomato, 1/4 onion and jalapeno pepper(remove the seeds, if you want it mild hot).

We need thyme, oregano leaves, and garlic powder. It is well and good if you have them fresh, otherwise also no issues.

Puree the tomatoes by grinding the the peeled of tomatoes in the mixer / blender.
