Recipe Introduction

From "The Chilli King" - http://www.thechilliking.com/Recipes/TomSauce.shtml

List of Ingredients

3 cans of plum tomatoes
2 cloves of garlic
1 Tbls of olive oil
1 dried red chilli
2 Tbls of red wine vinegar
2 Tbls of dried oregano


Recipe

Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan then add the finely chopped garlic and chillies.

Cook for a couple of minutes until the garlic begins to darken in colour.

Next add the plum tomatoes being careful not to break them.

The idea is to keep the tomatoes from breaking up until just before your serve the sauce.

Add 1 tablespoon of the dried oregano and simmer on a low heat for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.

After 1 hour add the remainder of the oregano, and the red wine vinegar then stir vigorously to break up the tomatoes.

This could also be done in a blender. (How smooth you want the final sauce is a matter of choice.)
