directions
Directions:
To make the tomato sauce, place a frying pan over a medium-low heat, add the oil and then the onion. Let the onion cook gently for about 2-3 minutes then add the garlic. Cook for a further 2-3 minutes – you want to cook the onion low and slow until it becomes translucent but not coloured (this will result in a sweeter flavour). Then add in the tomatoes. Mix to combine and season with the vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper. Allow to cook out for 10-15minutes until the tomatoes are soft and pulpy and the excess liquid has evaporated. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. If the sauce looks soupy, remove excess liquid with a large spoon. Whizz to smooth.
