7-VEG TOMATO SAUCE

There are three great things about this recipe. First up, it's great for embracing whatever veg you've got to hand - fresh, frozen or tinned, it's all good. Secondly, tomato sauce is so versatile - you can use it for lasagne, curry, pasta sauce, chilli, on pizza, in a soup, you name it. Finally, it makes a big batch, so portion it up and freeze it, so you're prepped for future meals. I've used two tins of tomatoes here, but feel free to chuck more in (if you've got them) to make the sauce go further.

Time 1h

Yield 2 to 3 litres

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 small onions
2 small leeks
2 sticks of celery
2 carrots
2 courgettes
2 red peppers
½ a butternut squash, (600g)
2 cloves of garlic
olive oil
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 x 400 g tins of quality plum tomatoes

Steps:

  • Start with your veg prep - you can either do this by hand (which is a great way to practise your knife skills) or, in batches, rattle it all through a food processor.
  • Peel the onions, wash and trim the leeks, celery, carrots and courgettes, deseed the peppers and squash (there's no need to peel it), then finely chop it all. Peel the garlic and finely chop by hand.
  • Put a super-large pan on a medium heat with 2 tablespoons of oil. Add the garlic and oregano, fry for 1 minute, then add all the prepped veg.
  • Cook with the lid on for 25 minutes, or until the veg are soft but not coloured, stirring regularly.
  • Pour in the tinned tomatoes, breaking them up with a wooden spoon, then just under half-fill each tin with water, swirl around and pour into the pan.
  • Simmer for 25 minutes, or until the sauce has reduced. Leave to cool a little, then blitz until smooth, taste, and season to perfection.

This came from the Nicholas Sparks "True Believer" novel. In the novel, Lexie made her grandmother Doris' Italian recipe for Jeremy. Jeremy loved it and so did my own husband. And, this is so easy.

This is a very simple recipe to make and tastes great too. This sauce tastes extra good if you add fried meatballs or pork spareribs to the sauce. Another good addition is a can of drained peas, if you like them. Happy eating!

Tips:

  • Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes. This will give your sauce the best flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you add too many tomatoes to the pan at once, they will steam and not brown properly.
  • Cook the sauce low and slow. This will help the flavors to develop and deepen.
  • Add a little sugar to balance the acidity of the tomatoes.
  • Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve the sauce over your favorite pasta, chicken, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

This easy seven-ingredient tomato sauce is a delicious and versatile addition to any meal. It's perfect for busy weeknights or when you're entertaining guests. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying sauce that everyone will love.
