HOW TO MAKE EASY ROASTED TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 200ºC.
• Place the tomatoes in a roasting tray then add the olive oil and flavourings.
• Mix to combine.
• Place in the oven and allow to roast for 30-45 minutes or until the tomatoes are soft and starting to char.
• Remove and set aside.
• Heat a splash of oil in a deep pot then add the onion and allow to soften for a few minutes.
• Add the garlic and allow to saute for a minute before adding the roasted tomatoes.
• Add the sugar (if using) then pour in the stock.
• Turn the heat down and allow to cook for 15-20 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly.
• 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.
• Alternatively, blend until as smooth as you prefer and then freeze/keep in the fridge.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Drizzle half the olive oil over each tray. Sprinkle half the red pepper flakes over each tray and season with salt and pepper. Roast, rotating sheet trays halfway through, until the tomatoes are just beginning to char on the bottom, about 25 minutes.
• Add the tomatoes to a large saucepan and crush with a potato masher until you reach desired consistency. Bring to a simmer and season with salt and pepper, and drizzle with more olive oil.
• Cook the pasta 2 minutes less than indicated on the box instructions. Transfer cooked pasta to sauce in saucepan, toss and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Finish with butter and grated Pecorino.
