I found this on the BBC Food site. It is supposed to go with spaghetti - I made it to pour over Morrocan meatballs.
Ingredients:
100 ml olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
8 ripe beefsteak tomatoes, skins removed, finely chopped
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 pinch ground turmeric
salt & freshly ground black pepper
100 g toasted sliced almonds
1 small bunch fresh parsley, finely chopped
1 small bunch fresh coriander, finely chopped
Directions:
1. Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and fry for 6-8 minutes, or until softened.
2. Add the tomatoes, ground cinnamon, coriander, cumin and turmeric. Continue to fry over a medium heat for 18-20 minutes, or until the tomatoes have broken down to a pulp. Season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
3. Add the almonds and stir well to combine.
4. Just before serving, stir in the chopped parsley and coriander.
