Homemade Balsamic Ketchup

• 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar

• 1 Tablespoon tomato paste

• 1-2 teaspoons crushed garlic

• 1 sprig fresh oregano

Place vinegar, tomato paste, and garlic into a small sauce pan. Whisk together until the paste is incorporated. Put in oregano. Allow the mixture to sit over medium heat for about 5 min. Reduce to a simmer and allow to reduce until it becomes a thick syrup. Remove from heat, discard oregano, and serve with oven fries (or chicken, pork, or with whatever floats your boat!)
