Tomato

Tamatar

3.8 g1 teaspoon

11 g1 tablespoon

120 g1 medium tomato

USDA standard medium tomato weight (~123 g, rounded to two sig figs) | Chopped tomato; 1 cup ≈180 g.

Instead of Tomato

Tomato purée
Use 40% to 50% of the fresh tomato weight mixed with a splash of water. Imparts a deeper red colour, thicker sauce, and slightly sweeter cooked flavour.
Plain yogurt
Use 60% of the weight, whisked smooth and added on low heat. Provides rich body and sourness, though the gravy becomes paler and creamier.
