Love this sauce not only is it syn free its easy to make and can be stored in the fridge in an air container for at least a week making it an easy go to meal, it also freezes well. The batch i have made makes approx 4 portions but it will depend on what you use it for her is how i use it:-
Pizza base
Sauce for pasta – you could add extra mushroom and bacon to it
Base for Spaghetti Bolognese
Base for meatballs
Goes well with prawns also
Ingredients
1 tin of Tomatoes
1 onion ( i use red as i feel it gives a softer flavour but use what you have)
Garlic (add to your taste)
Worcestershire Sauce – a dash
Balsamic Vinegar a good glug
Red wine Stock pot (syn free) or you could use red wine the choice is yours
1 tablespoon of tomatoe puree
Basil as much as you want i also added some oregano but again the choice is yours
TOP TIPS
Take time to sweat the onions down slowly it will really pay off keep them on a low heat and if they start burning take them off the heat and let the pan cool once cooled gently heat again once they have a “jammy” feel and look they are done
Tinned Tomatoes can have a lot of added juice if this happens with the ones you use just keep the pan on a low heat bubbling away until the excess juice has reduced down into the sauce
Adjust the taste to suit you – like more garlic add more, like more basil add more its a very versatile sauce and has so many uses
Leave chunky or smooth the choice is yours
Make a big batch and freeze then your only minutes away from a meal
Enjoy!
