Rich Tomato Sauce Preparation
From: Katherine Sheppard <katherine.sheppard@corpus-christi.oxford.ac.uk> Date: Sat, 17 Aug 1996 15:15:20 +0000 I sent this to rec.food.recipes a few days ago in response to a request then thought it would be of interest to people on this list. I like this recipe especially because it just doesn”t work if the onion is sauteed in oil or butter. Fatfree cooking techniques triumph again! NOTE: British pints are 20 fl oz. My pints are British :-) WARNING: Don”t use a non-stick pan whatever you do. Enameled is best. Put the onion in a pan with 1/2 pint stock. Cover, bring to the boil and cook 5 – 10 min. Remove lid and boil off until stock is almost gone. When it”s getting pretty dry, stir well with a wooden spoon. Keep boiling. Scrape up any brown residue from bottom of pan. Have the rest of the stock ready in a jug. Let the bottom of the pan brown – don”t be frightened. This is what makes the flavour so rich. But don”t let it blacken. When the pan has a good brown coating, pour in a splash of stock and stir and scrape. The browned bits will dissolve into the stock and coat the onions. You will NOT be left with a damaged pan. Boil away stock again, repeat above procedure about 4-5 times until onions are collapsed and dark brown. Add the garlic and stir 30 seconds. Now add the tomatoes and mash down with a potato masher. Bring to the boil then reduce the heat until the mixture is *just* simmering. Cook like this, very slowly, for about 1/2 hour or until reduced as required. Puree in a blender and rub through a sieve to remove seeds and skins. Return to the pan, add the basil and just bring to the boil to bring out the flavour of the basil. fatfree digest V96 #228 From the Fatfree Vegetarian recipe list.
