Tomato Base Sauce
April 2, 2015
My son has requested lasagne for dinner tonight (it's his birthday) but I'd no pasta sauce left so time to make another batch
Directions
1I sautéed my veg for a few minutes in the oil then chucked everything else in the pot and brought to the boil
2Then I reduced the heat and left to simmer for 45 minutes stirring occasionally until it was thick and glossy looking
3Then I blitzed it in the food processor in batches til it was fairly smooth
4If your family are used to jars then you should probably have a taste now and if it's a bit 'bitter' then you can stir in some sugar to neutralise the tomatoes (Remember a 500g jar of dolmio has something like 6 tsp of sugar in it so you adding a couple to yours is still MUCH healthier)
