In every kitchen there are some basic recipes we can whip out in a 
few minutes.  You know those nights when you’re just so exhausted, 
you can’t be bothered whipping up a storm? Well this basic tomato 
sauce is a one pot dinner that can be ready in 20 minutes.
 It’s one I always make in a large batches and freeze in individual 
glass jars.  If I have a crazy day I simply pull it out of the freezer in the 
morning, and all I need to do when I get home is boil the pasta.  
Dinner is ready in 10 minutes. I’ve made some variations to the 
traditional napoli sauce my mum taught me when I was a kid.  I pack 
some extra vegetables to create a  nourishing sauce and it makes it 
much creamier.  I hope you love it as much as my family does.
INGREDIENTS : - 
A bottle tomato passata or 2 cans fresh tomato
 1 white onion
 1 large carrot
 2 zucchini
 Handful of basil leaves
 Teaspoon salt
 2 tablespoons olive oil
METHOD
Dice the onion in small pieces.  In a medium saucepan saute onion 
with two tablespoons of olive oil. Cook until the onion start to 
brown. 
Slice carrots and zucchini into small pieces and toss into the 
saucepan and allow to brown and soften - about four minutes 
should be enough. 
Add the bottle of passata and a handful of fresh basil leaves. Add 
salt. Cook on medium heat for about 20 minutes. I’m a huge fan of 
tasting as I go and encourage you to do the same. 
At the 20 minute mark taste for salt and make sure the tomato has 
a rich flavour.
Once cooked blend thoroughly until you have created a smooth 
creamy sauce. 
Mix with your favourite pasta and top with your favourite 
Parmesan - dairy or vegan
