Serves: 2
Preparation time: 30 minutes approx.
Ingredients:
- 250g baby plum tomatoes
- 1 red onion, finely chopped
- 1 clove of garlic (2 if you like it strong)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp MaRobert's sauce - adjust the heat to suit your preference
- 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 1 sweet pepper - red/yellow/orange
- Salt and pepper to taste
Method:
-
Slice the tomatoes in half width ways and finely chop the onion and garlic.
- Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium/high heat and add the tomatoes. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften.
- Add the onion and garlic to the tomatoes and cook until soft. Meanwhile, dice the pepper.
- Stir in the MaRobert's sauce and add the balsamic vinegar. Reduce the heat to medium/low and cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the pepper and cook until it begins to soften. If you want variation in the sauce's texture then do not soften the pepper too much, so it will still have a slight crunch.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Serve as required.
Tip: Add olives to serve with pasta
Tip: For a really fruity tang, add diced mango. This will sweeten the sauce and add texture.
