Method

  • 1. You will need a saucepan with a lid.

  • 2. Roughly chop all the vegetables and crush and peel the garlic.

  • 3. Warm the Olive Oil over a medium heat and then add the vegetables. Cook for a couple of minutes. Stir regularly, do not let the veg colour.

  • 4. Now add the three tins of tomatoes.

  • 5. Stir well, bring to a simmer then place the lid on tightly and gently cook for 25 minutes.

  • 6. The secret of this sauce is to gently cook the tomatoes for 25 minutes. Don't cut this time short, it will taste like tinned tomatoes rather than a rich pasta sauce.

  • 7. Once cooked, blitz the contents, a hand blender is the best tool for this job. Make sure the consitency is smooth.

  • 8. Once finished, add salt and pepper to taste.

  • 9. The finished sauce can be frozen, or used as a base for any pasta dish.

  • Once you have made this, you will always make it. Try adding oregano!

    Why buy the jars and cans - make your own? It tastes better, you know what's in it and the kids love it.
