Dice the peeled onion into small pieces.
Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat.

Pour the canned peeled tomatoes with their juice into the saucepan.
Stir in the fish sauce until well combined.
Reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and the flavors meld together.
Season with salt to your preference and serve warm.
