Notes
- You can buy sun-dried tomatoes already cut into strips - called julienned sun-dried tomatoes! Either buy them already chopped up or cut them up yourself. You don't need to get them all the same size or thickness, just roughly slice them up. (julienned just means cut into thin strips)
- When buying sun-dried tomatoes, buy the ones in oil, that oil is packed with flavor. Here we are using it to fry off the onion.
- You can use two teaspoons of tomato paste or swap for one tablespoon of canned tomato/passata.
- Look for the long life shelf-stable packages; you will find it on the pasta aisle at the grocery store.
