1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 red jalepeno or other red chili pepper diced.
1/4 cup of diced onion
salt to taste
Directions:
1. Rinse and Drain the Raw Pork Rind.
2. Heat up 2 tablespoons of oil in a skillet on medium high heat.
3. Place the pork rind in the skillet and stir-fry for 5 minutes.
4. Add the Diced Onion and stir-fry for another 5 minutes until the Onions are tender.
5. Add the Water, Tomato Paste, and Jalepeno and stir to combine.
6. Bring the Mixture to a boil and reduce the heat and simmer for 5-10 minutes until the volume has reduced by half.
7. Salt to taste.
