3. On a frying pan, add ur vegetable oil and put your tomatoes and bell pepper (if u're using garlic cloves and onion instead of powder u should add them now too). I like to squeeze tomatoes with a fork to get all the juices and flavor.
4. Add your brisket on the pan and stir with veggies. Add the tomato paste and the cooking wine. Let it boil, add the sugar and taste it in case it needs more salt or seasoning.
5. Add enough beef broth (water left from cooking ur beef) to the sauce. Cook it until sauce is ready and thickened.
