Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Heat broiler. In a large bowl, toss onions with olive oil to coat. Place onions on a baking sheet and broil until blackened, about 10 to 12 minutes to a side.

  2. Step 2

    In a small iron skillet over medium heat, toast coriander, cumin and mustard seeds until fragrant, about 2 to 3 minutes. Grind toasted spices in a mortar and pestle or spice grinder.

  3. Step 3

    In a deep, heavy, nonreactive pot, combine onions, ground coriander, cumin and mustard and remaining ingredients. Simmer over medium-low heat about 3 hours, stirring every 15 minutes to break up tomatoes and to keep ketchup from sticking. Ketchup should reduce by a third. Let cool slightly.

  4. Step 4

    In a food processor or blender, puree ketchup in batches. Transfer to jars. Let cool completely, then refrigerate. Ketchup will keep for as long as 3 months in refrigerator, or frozen for as long as 6 months.
