basic tomato sauce - can be used for pizza:
heat a couple of spoons of olive (or vegetable) oil in a good non-stick pan!. add finely chopped garlic (1-4 cloves)!. as soon as it becomes fragrant (not brown), pour in a tin or two of chopped tomatoes!. you can also add a spoon or two of tomato paste!. now add black pepper and salt (or vegetable stock cube diluted in a very small amount of water)!. add some herbs (basil is best, but also good are oregano, thyme, rosemary - or any mix of these)
cook uncovered until it thickens!. now just finish with a teaspoon or two of sugar!.
slightly different - i'd make this for pasta:
heat olive oil, add finely chopped onion and cook on medium heat until translucent!. if using chillies put them in now!. add two tins of chopped tomatoes, a couple of cloves of crushed garlic, herbs, black pepper, vegetable stock and cook covered for about 15-20 minutes!. thicken the sauce if necessary with 2 teaspoons of plain flour dissolved in 100ml of water (use a jar with a tight fitting lid and vigorously shake!.!.!.best technique to ensure there are no lumps)!. pour this mixture into the sauce and stir well!. now add chopped vegetables!. if using carrot, put it in first, cook for 5 minutes, than add mushrooms and courgette and cook for another 5 minutes!. (or any other veggies - just make sure you put them in in the correct order so that nothing is overcooked)
adjust taste with sugar!. a bit of balsamic vinegar is also nice!.
Bone appetite!
