Homemade fresh tomato sauce

| · 2 min read time
To eat as naturally as possible, I also make my own sauces. With this freshly made tomato sauce, you can go in any direction. You can use this sauce perfectly as a base for a pasta dish but also with stuffed peppers and various fish dishes or make a delicious soup out of it. My goal was to create a healthy sauce that doesn't need to simmer for hours to develop its flavor. Making fresh sauce is delicious but it shouldn't take too much time. This sauce is ready in a maximum of 20 minutes. And it's still a great basic skill to know how to make your own fresh tomato sauce!

  • 4 finely chopped (Roma) tomatoes
  • 1 can diced tomatoes (400 gr)

Tip! Add a red bell pepper for variation! Tip! Making pasta? Add some cottage cheese to your sauce before serving. This makes the sauce creamier in taste.
