1 tablespoon ketchup
1/8 teaspoon salt


Place the hot pepper, garlic, and cilantro in the bowl of a food processor and process for 5 to 10 seconds, until coarsely chopped. Add the tomato pieces, water, ketchup, and salt, and 1'rocess again until the mixture is chunky, in pieces no larger than 1/4-inch. Transfer to a jar and refrigerate until serving time. (This will keep for at least 2 weeks in the refrigerator.)
