This is an adopted recipe. I am always on the lookout for freezer recipes so that's why I chose to add this one to my collection. Orignal introduction; I discovered this recipe in a German home and living magazine as a pizza sauce. But I did have some leftover and soon discovered that you can easily use it as a basic pasta sauce or even as tomato soup adding a bit of cream. It freezes well, so feel free to multiply the ingredients. I usually pack a couple of jars when we go on vacation, so I don't have to fuss too much about dinner. These are the original ingredients, but I usually add more garlic and sun-dried tomatoes if they are easily available. In summer I add fresh basil. Ingredients:
100 g onions, chopped |
1 garlic clove, sliced |
1/2 red chile, cut in rings |
40 g sun-dried tomatoes, finely chopped |
300 g tomatoes, diced |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 teaspoon sugar |
1 tablespoon tomato paste |
1/8 liter vegetable broth |
salt, to taste |
pepper |
Directions:
1. Sauté onions, garlic, chili and sun-dried tomatoes. 2. Add tomato paste and sugar and let sauté about 2 minutes. 3. Add tomatoes and broth, salt and cook for 45 minute in open saucepan, stirring occasionally. 4. blend and strain. |
