Add the remaining tomatoes, now the mixture shouldn`t boil anymore. Season the mixture with 4 toes of Knofi squeezed (!), 2 tablespoons of thyme, salt and cayenne pepper to taste.
4. The mixture should be deep red, add a little tomato paste if necessary.
5. Drain the potatoes up to 150 ml of the broth and roughly mash them with a pounder (!) So that the result is not a pulp, but a granular mass. Mix in the tomato mixture and season to taste again. It should have an intense taste of garlic and thyme, but potatoes and the fruity of tomatoes should also be tasted. A certain sharpness from the cayenne is desirable!
6. Grilled poultry goes well with it, but also any other white meat.
