Salsa Recipe chunky version

Was sending this to Teresa and decided to keep a record here, in case I can no longer remember it in future.

Ingredients

Red and yellow peppers, diced.
big fat ripe tomatoes, diced and drained
garlic chopped
small red onions, chopped
basil, chopped
bay leaves whole
chopped chili padi, (for spicy versions)
olive oil
salt to taste
some rock sugar, if not ordinary white sugar also can.
can also add a small stock cube for stronger flavour.

Steps

1. heat olive oil in saucepan med heat, add garlic and chili (sweat chili longer to reduce spicy-ness). When garlic's colour darkens a bit, add in onions. Leave onions to sweat till soften.
2. Fry the colored peppers till they soften a bit.
3. Add tomatos and bay leaves and basil. Fry a bit more. When the juice start to boil, turn down heat to low. Continue to simmer till juice is reduced to the consistency u like.
4. Add salt to taste. Then some rock sugar to balance the sourness.
