Homemade Pizza Sauce ...
In my circle of friends store bought pizza's have become a no-no not because they are bad , but rather they just don't taste as good as the real deal made at home with fresh tomato sauce in place of tinned tomato paste.I have become somewhat infamous for my tomato sauce and so today I have decided to share it with you.
Preparing & Cooking time - 15 - 20 minutes
Serves: 2 - 3 pizza's
Ingredients:
1 tin canned tomato and onion
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 pinch mixed herbs
1 pinch salt
1 pinch crushed black pepper
1 clove garlic minced
50gr tomato paste
A splash of balsamic vinegar
Method:
- put the oil and herbs in a saucepan and allow to heat up
- add the rest of the ingredients
- allow the ingredients to simmer for 10 - 15 mins and reduce the liquid
- add a splash of balsamic vinegar and allow to cool
Cooks notes -
** I love to add freshly chopped basil to the sauce when I am alone , it makes it fragrant and enhance the flavour of the tomatoes
Did you know?
Tomatoes are a neutral food and alkaline , they only turn to an acid once cooked!
If you struggle with indigestion and ulcers , take care and limit your intake of cooked tomatoes.
So there you have it, my favourite tomato sauce for pizza ... Enjoy!
