Tomato Sauce (Warm butter in a frying pan)

Warm butter in a frying pan, adding slowly the flour. To one quart of tomatoes (canned), five or six cloves with a large slice of onion. Cook about ten minutes, and as soon as flour and butter seem perfectly smooth and brown, stir in the tomatoes. Cook three minutes. Salt and pepper to suit the taste. Put this through a sieve fine enough to keep the seed from passing through. This sauce is delicious with fish and macaroni.
