Recipe:
-
Put all the ingredients into a pot. Do NOT drain the tomatoes; add the entire can (juice and all) to the pot.
-
Warm over medium heat, while stirring the ingredients together. If the tomatoes are whole tomatoes rather than chopped tomatoes, break them up into smaller pieces as you stir.
-
The sauce is ready once the ingredients are mixed and warm
Notes:
This is a quick recipe shown to me by a French friend. At first I wasn't going to post it as it uses canned rather than fresh ingredients. However, it does taste quite good and is ready in 10 minutes, so I'll make an exception and include it. After all, even gourmets like a quick and easy meal once and a while.
This sauce could be used with a variety of main dishes. For example, stuffed peppers or spaghetti in tomato sauce.
Normally my recipes call for pepper and salt. However, as this recipe is using canned ingredients, which normally have salt already added, adding additional salt may be too much.
