Do you see a grater there ? Oh, yes you do!
This is a great way of making tomato puree without the help of a blender. I learnt this from Vardit while i was teaching her some Indian recipes. This comes in very handy even for the simple south Indian rasam especially when you have a little imp at home who picks and complains, "amma, tholu (skin)". Clean the tomatoes, cut each of them into 2 halves, place the flesh side of the tomato on the grater and grate till you see the thin skin and all the pulp is gone underneath.
We could do the same for most dishes like dhal makhani, lentil soup, rasam, masal that we make for puri, chutney, thokku, pickles - the list is endless even when the tomatoes are skinless.
