Stir-fry onions in hot oil until golden. Add chilli and salt, stir and reduce heat. Let simmer for 2 minutes. Add diced tomatoes, chopped anchovies, oil and all. Stir and let simmer very gently for 15 minutes. Stir occasionally. This long cooking removes the bite of the chilli and blends all the flavours together. The same recipe can be prepared using red chilli instead of green chilli and ripe tomatoes instead of green ones. This sambal will keep for a week if put in the refrigerator.
