Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 kg approximately 4lb ripe tomatoes (I use a mixture and like to roast them with the vines) Quartered or roughly chopped
  • 2-3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4-6 garlic cloves peeled (I don't bother chopping the garlic as it will get blended with the sauce)
  • 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • small handful fresh thyme leaves
  • ½ teaspoon chilli flakes/red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • Black pepper to taste

for the sauce

  • 2 Red Onions finely chopped
  • 2-3 garlic cloves thinly sliced
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 1-2 teaspoons sugar optional
  • ½-1 cup vegetable stock

Instructions

  1. Pre-heat the oven to 390°F/200ºC.
  2. Place the tomatoes in a roasting tray then add the olive oil and flavourings.
  3. Mix to combine.
  4. Place in the oven and allow to roast for 30-45 minutes or until the tomatoes are soft and starting to char.
  5. Remove and set aside.
  6. Heat a splash of oil in a deep pot then add the onion and allow to soften for a few minutes.
  7. Add the garlic and allow to saute for a minute before adding the roasted tomatoes.
  8. Add the sugar (if using) then pour in the stock.
  9. Turn the heat down and allow to cook for 15-20 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly.
  10. At this point you can keep the sauce rustic and chunky and freeze in ziploc bags or keep in the fridge in an airtight container for up to a week.
  11. Alternatively, blend until as smooth as you prefer and then freeze/keep in the fridge.
