Add 1 chopped onion, 100g tomatoes, 100g chopped ginger and 3 garlic cloves to the mixing bowl. Process for 10 Sec./Stufe 5 to create a rough paste.

Sauté Aromatics

Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a flameproof dish on the stovetop. Fry 1 sliced onion until softened. Add 1 tsp turmeric, 1 tbsp ground cumin, 1 tbsp coriander and 1 tbsp cinnamon and fry for 1 min more until fragrant. Add the paste from the Thermomix and fry for another few mins to soften.
