Rich Roasted Pasta Sauce
Ready In: 35 mins
Serves: 3
Yields: 3 portions
Ingredients
- 500 g tomato passata
- 2 bell peppers
- 1 onion
- 1 courgette
- 6 garlic cloves (see note)
- olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried herbs
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 200°c and spray or wipe a deep baking dish, about 20cm square, with oil.
- Slice the peppers and dice the onion and courgette, if not ready-prepared, and the other vegetables if using.
- Pile the vegetables into the baking dish- don't worry if they overlap, this doesn't need to be in a single layer. If using olives, don't add them yet.
- Drizzle or spray the vegetables with olive oil and roast for 15 minutes at the top of the oven. Meanwhile finely slice or mince the garlic. I use 3 cloves if raw, 6 cloves if you have roasted it already (which is much tastier).
- After this time, remove the pan from the oven. Stir in the garlic, olives and mixed herbs and pour the passata over.
- Return to the oven for another 15 minutes. If it is still not thick enough for you, stir and put it back in for another 5 minutes.
- Serve over cooked pasta or as a filling in a delicious vegan "sloppy joe" type sandwich.
