Recipe for tomato and garlic paste: 1. You can use fresh tomatoes or tomatoes in cans for cooking. They are already cleaned in the bank. When using fresh tomatoes, they should be poured with boiling water, peeled off and selected peduncles. Then finely chop. 2. So, first clean and cut the onions into small cubes. I advise you to use red, because it is more tender and sweet. But the traditional white onion is also suitable. Heat the frying pan, pour in the oil and fry the onion over a small fire until soft. 3. Then add the garlic passed through the press to the onion. Stir while frying for another minute. Then add the tomatoes, tomato puree and sugar. Stir and fry for 15 minutes. At the end, tear fresh basil leaves directly into the frying pan. Mix everything. Done! Tomato-garlic sauce is used for any kind of pasta, meat dishes, soups, seafood dishes, stewing. Of course, with fresh tomatoes the sauce will be much tastier. Fans of sharpened can add more garlic or fresh chili. Sauce can be stored in the refrigerator, in a sealed container, if there is such a need. Bon Appetit!
