Tripolitan Tomato Sauce

1. Cook Aromatics

Begin by melting unsalted butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Once the butter has fully melted and starts to foam, add the finely chopped onion, thinly sliced garlic, and grated ginger. Cook these aromatics for about 5 minutes, until softened and fragrant.

2. Add Spices and Tomatoes

Sprinkle baharat into the skillet, stirring to coat the aromatics. Immediately add the crushed tomatoes and allow the sauce to simmer until it transforms into a rich, rusty red hue, about 5 minutes.
