Ingredients 

300 grams Tomato

10 grams garlic

15 grams Butter

2 green Chillies 

Salt to Taste 

Pepper to taste 

Chilli powder for colour 

Crushed Oregano 

1 Tbsp Vinegar

1 Tsp Soya Sauce ( can add more) 

Method

Step 1

Blend the garlic, chillies and tomatoes in a blender to make a puree

Step 2

The original recipe calls to sieve the puree but as its a rustic reduced sauce I avoid this step.

Thus, for a chunkier version, you stop pureeing the tomatoes sooner, when there are still some bits of tomato left. For a smooth version, you can chop the tomatoes finely first and then puree them very well.

Step 3

Heat the butter in a heavy bottom saucepan and once melted add in the tomato garlic chilli puree. Cook down for 5-7 minutes stirring constantly to ensure nothing sticks. 

Step 4

Add in salt, pepper, chilli powder*, vinegar and soya sauce.Cover and cook down till it's a thick sauce consistency(may take some time). Sprinkle some Oregano & then remove from the heat and let it cool. Transfer to a bottle and store in the fridge. 

I use this for my pizzas, bread, burgers and whole roasted cauliflower. 

* the colour of the sauce will depend on the tomatoes hence to get a stronger red colour one can additionally add chilli powder.
