Steps:
- mash up the Garlic really well. i use a pilon or mortar & pestle.
- heat up Olive Oil in a sauce pan and let garlic simmer for a few minutes. Do not let it burn!
- put in the Tomato Sauce and mix in the Tomato Paste to desired thickness. this sauce should not taste alot like tomato, the garlic should take over the taste of it.
- mix in the Lemon Juice.
- Let it cool a bit and eat with tostones as a dip.
- *Variation: For a stronger taste you can let the sauce sit for a few days and then run it through a strainer to get rid of the pieces of garlic,.
