Classic tomato sauce
A flavourful tomato sauce made from a handful of ingredients - tomatoes, garlic, herbs and onions meld together beautifully for an easy, versatile recipe.
Servings: 1 litre
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 onion diced
- 4 garlic cloves crushed
- ½ tsp sea salt
- ¼ tsp cracked black pepper
- 1 x 680 ml passata rustica
- 1 tbsp tomato puree
- Handful each of fresh oregano and basil leaves roughly chopped
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, salt and pepper and cook for 4–5 minutes, or until softened.
- Add the tomato puree, passata and herbs and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 8-10 minutes.
- Use a stick blender to blend to your desired consistency. For a chunky, more rustic sauce, blender for a shorter time; if you prefer a smooth sauce blend for longer or transfer to a high-speed blender and blend until smooth.
