Roast Tomato Sauce

Serves 4

5-10 minutes preparation, 45 minutes roasting time

This is deliciously simple. The roasting gives the ingredients a divinely rich flavour while the method means you only need to bung everything in the oven while you’re busy with other things. Then just give it a quick blend – result!

450g/1lb tomatoes, quartered
1 red pepper, roughly chopped
1 onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1tsp mixed herbs
2tbs olive oil
Salt and pepper

Preheat oven to 200ºC/400ºF/Gas Mark 6.
Mix all ingredients together in a roasting tin and roast for approx 45 minutes until slightly charred round the edges.
Blend in a blender or food processor or pass through a sieve.
Season to taste.
