Step 1
Start by tossing the tomato sauce, chopped onion, habanero peppers, garlic, and cilantro into a blender. Blend everything until it’s nice and smooth. Next, add the tomato paste, ketchup, honey, brown sugar, and white vinegar to the blender and give it another quick blend to combine all those flavors.
