Heat olive oil in a large stock pot or dutch oven over medium-high heat. 2. Add onion and cook until onion becomes translucent and begins to brown, about 3-5 minutes. 3. Add garlic, ginger, and jalapeño. Continue to cook over medium heat until garlic is fragrant and jalapeño is tender, about 3-4 minutes. 4.

Stir to incorporate, making sure to use the spoon the scrape off any brown bits that have appeared on the bottom or sides of the pot. As the tomatoes break down, the mixture should take on the texture of a thick stew. Add more water if needed before bringing everything to a simmer and covering for 15 minutes. 6. Once uncovered, reduce heat to low and mix in the lemon juice and chopped cilantro. Cook over low heat 1-2 minutes until the cilantro has wilted and turned bright green. 7.
