Place all ingredients, apart from the tomato juice, lime and salt, in a thick based pan and cook until all of the moisture has gone and the ingredient’s start to stick to the pan, add the tomato and reduce until dry. Remove the pan from the heat and cool. When cold, place the mixture into a food processor and very slowly, while the blender is going, add olive oil until the mixture emulsifies and creates a thick dressing consistency, then finally add a squeeze of lime to taste.
Remove to a container, refrigerate and keep until needed.
