Cook tomatoes, a spoonful of water, salt and an epazote leaf until tomatoes soften; remove from heat, peel tomatoes, remove the seeds and grind well. Carefully roast habanero pepper so that it does not burst; Heat butter in a saucepan; fry chopped onion with a leaf of epazote, add tomatoes. Boil sauce for 5 minutes, add the pieces of shark, leave uncovered over low heat, so shark takes on the flavor of the sauce. Remove from heat once it has thickened. Add chili to pot. Serve hot.
