   1      small         onion -- finely chopped
   1      tablespoon    peanut oil
   1      clove         garlic -- minced
   1      tablespoon    grated fresh gingerroot
   4                    ripe plum tomatoes -- chopped
   1      tablespoon    sugar

In a large saucepan cook the onion in the peanut oil until well

constantly, for 8 to 10 minutes. Add the sugar and vinegar and cook

juices and simmer until thickened. Serve warm, at room temperature or
chilled.
