KEZZA'S CHUNKY PIZZA SAUCE



Kezza's Chunky Pizza Sauce image

My boyfriend and I had the most fantastic pizza in Italy during our travels, even the takeaway stuff is fantastic. Through trial and error (and expanding waistlines) we think that I've found a good approximation of a home-made pizza sauce we had in Cassino when we went down there for the 60th commemorations last year.

Time 1h10m

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 large onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon dried oregano
3 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
2 (400 g) cans plum tomatoes, roughly chopped (or, 10 x large plum tomatoes, x's cut into the skin, then plunged into boiling water for 2 minutes,)
4 tablespoons tomato paste
freshly ground salt & pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan, on medium heat.
  • Saute the onions and garlic until translucent, but do not allow to burn or brown.
  • Add the herbs and saute for 1 minute.
  • Add the tomatoes and tomato paste (and salt & pepper to taste) and simmer for 60 minutes on low heat (I use 2/6) until reduced to a thick sauce. I taste this every 10 minutes and sometimes add pepper if required.
  • Cool, and use on your favourite pizza bases. Can be used on 4 x medium bases (if you like a lot of sauce), or 6 bases if you like a thinner covering. You can also puree this with a Bamix if chunky sauce isn't your thing (plus, it goes further if you puree it).

Add salt and pepper to taste.

CHUNKY PIZZA SAUCE

I like a thick, chunky pizza sauce with more flavors than just tomato. I couldn't find a recipe like this, so I combined bits from two or three others and made my own.

1 small red bell peppers or 1 small green bell pepper, finely chopped
5 cloves garlic, pressed
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1/3 cup dry red wine

2 bay leaves
1/2 teaspoon salt
black pepper

Steps:

Categories     Food & Cooking     Healthy Recipes     Gluten-Free Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 diced onion
2 minced garlic cloves
1 can (28 ounces) whole peeled tomatoes
1 can (28 ounces) crushed tomatoes
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
Pinch of sugar (optional)
Coarse salt and ground pepper

Steps:

  • In medium saucepan, heat oil over medium. Cook onion and garlic until translucent, stirring, 3 minutes.
  • Add whole, peeled tomatoes (lightly crushed with hands), crushed tomatoes, oregano, and a pinch of sugar (optional).
  • Simmer, stirring until thickened, 10 to 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Freeze any leftover sauce for up to 3 months.

Tips:

  • Use the best quality tomatoes you can find. Fresh, ripe tomatoes will give your sauce the best flavor. If you can, use tomatoes from your own garden or a local farmer's market.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. When you're cooking the tomatoes, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the tomatoes from cooking evenly and will make the sauce watery.
  • Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes. The longer you simmer the sauce, the more flavorful it will be. So don't be afraid to let it simmer for an hour or even longer.
  • Season the sauce to taste. Once the sauce is simmering, season it to taste with salt, pepper, and oregano. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as basil, thyme, or garlic powder.
  • Let the sauce cool before using it. Once the sauce is cooked, let it cool before using it. This will help the flavors to develop and will make the sauce easier to handle.

Conclusion:

Making your own pizza sauce is easy and rewarding. With a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can create a delicious sauce that will make your pizzas taste even better. So next time you're making pizza, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed.
