Ingredients

  • 4 teaspoons vegetable oil divided
  • 1 small white or sweet onion finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1 14.5-ounce can unsalted diced tomatoes

Instructions

  • Heat 1 teaspoon oil in heavy medium saucepan over medium-heat.
