Homemade Tomato Pasta Sauce | Kids Eat by Shanai

Home Made Tomato Pasta Sauce


  • Total Time: 1 hour 10 minutes

Description

Home made tomato pasta sauce with hidden vegetables!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1kg tomatoes
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1/2 brown onion
  • 1 carrot
  • 1 stick celery
  • 40g olive oil
  • 4 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

THERMOMIX METHOD

Place all ingredients into mixing bowl and blend 30 sec / speed 10.  Scrape down sides of bowl.

Add 1/2 cup of water and cook 30 min / Varoma / speed 1 with MC removed and TM basket on mixing bowl lid.

Check the consistency of your sauce and for a thicker sauce cook a further 30 min / Varoma / speed 1 with MC removed and TM basket on mixing bowl lid.  If you choose to cook this extra 30 mins just regularly check your sauce to make sure the base isn’t burning.  (the juiciness of your tomatoes will affect how thick your sauce gets)

NON THERMOMIX METHOD

Use a food processor to blitz all the ingredients, you may need to do in batches.

Place into a large pot on the stove with 1/2 cup of water and simmer gently with a lid on for up to 90 mins, stirring every 10 mins or so and checking consistency.

Notes

Store sauce in a sealed container in the fridge – it’ll keep for up to a week.  Portion and freeze the rest for up to 3 months.
