Recipe: Easy Marinara Dipping Sauce
©From the Kitchen of Deep South Dish
Prep/Cook time: 20 min | Yield: About 4 servings
Ingredients
Instructions
- 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 (6 ounce) can of tomato paste
- 1 (10 ounce) can of Rotel tomatoes, undrained
- 1 (8 ounce) can of tomato sauce
- 2 teaspoons of sugar
- 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh basil
Heat the olive oil and add the tomato paste, cooking it for a few minutes. Stir in the Rotel tomatoes and tomato sauce; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, add the sugar and simmer for 15 minutes, mashing the tomatoes and stirring occasionally. Let cool.
Note: I used mild Rotel and Hunts tomato sauce with basil, garlic and oregano. To transform this into a pasta sauce, add a 15 ounce can of diced tomatoes, a couple of minced garlic cloves, a medium onion, chopped, Italian seasoning, a little red wine and some mushrooms. Saute vegetables in the oil before adding the tomato paste and proceed with the recipe as above.
