Preparation:

Step 1
• Thread the tomatoes onto skewers and roast over an open flame. Or cut them in half, place them cut-side down on a baking sheet, and roast under the grill.
  
  Bake until the skin is charred and begins to peel away from the flesh. Scrape off any charred skin. Mash the tomatoes with a fork and add salt.
Step 2
• In a mortar, crush the garlic, pepper, and cilantro. Mix with the tomato puree. Heat a little oil in a frying pan and fry the onion until caramelized. Add the hot caramelized onion to the tomato mixture.
