I made this today and wow! is it ever tasty. A little hot though, so if anybody doesn't like heat, go easy on the red pepper flakes and maybe even use a little less ginger. It cooks down a lot, I ended up slightly less than 2 cups. I can't wait to put this on a burger!

Prepare:
4 cups paste or standard tomatoes (about 6)

Prepare tomatoes, by first blanching them for 10 seconds then plunging them into ice water. Skin will peel off. Cut in half and squeeze out seeds. Dice and set aside.
Saute ginger and garlic in oil, in a saute pan over medium-low heat, until soft (5 minutes).
Add lemon juice and cinnamon sticks. Saute until liquid is evaporated.
Stir in tomatoes, brown sugar, cumin, and red pepper flakes. Simmer until tomato juices have evaporated (35-40 minutes). Stir often or sugar will burn. Remove from heat.
