When it boils, put the lid on it and let it simmer for 50 minutes. Take out the Carrot before serving, the carrot is there to help take away any acidity from the tomatoes and to help sweeten the sauce a little.

Once it is finished, serve with rice or pasta. And if you are eating it with rice, try having some plain non-fat yogurt on the side with it :).
