Step 1

Put the onion, ginger and garlic in a food processor and blitz to a smooth paste.

Step 2

Heat the oil in a large flameproof casserole dish or pan over a medium heat. Add the onion paste and fry for 8 mins or until lightly golden. Stir in the curry paste and fry for 1 min more. Add the tomatoes, tomato purée and sugar. Bring to a simmer and cook, covered, for another 10 mins.
