Made this sauce to go with some homemade pasta, and it turned out amazing. It is very rich and creamy, a little bit goes a long way. I used cherry tomatoes, and for the seasoning I just used an Italian herb blend, and black garlic. I finished it with some cream and then viola.
Recipe
Ingredients
- 34 oz. cherry tomatoes
- 2-3 tbsp of the fat of your choice (I used avocado oil)
- 1 tbsp. talian seasoning
- 1 tbsp. black garlic
- 1-3 tsp. sea salt
- 1/2c. cream
Notes
For the fat, you can use any fat that has a high smoke point. I use avocado but butter or any animal fat would work, as long as you like the flavor. If the sauce starts to evaporate too much, you can add an ounce of water at a time to replenish what evaporated! Adding some parmesan cheese would certainly add to the flavor as well 🙂
Instructions
- Put 2 tablespoons of fat in a pan and turn the stove on medium-high heat. Put the tomatoes in the pan. They will soften after a few minutes.
- After the tomatoes have softened a bit, stir them around so they cook evenly. Add the Italian seasoning, and black garlic. When the tomatoes are soft enough, you can crush them lightly until it resembles a sauce.
- Let it simmer a little longer and turn the heat to medium-low. If it is evaporating rapidly, you can add an ounce or two of water. When it is cooked to you liking, add salt. I start with a teaspoon and then taste and revaluate and add more.
- Last, add the cream and cook for a few more minutes until it thickens to your liking. The finished product will be a beautiful orange color and hopefully, taste amazing.
