I concocted a nice, thick, fairly healthy and more importantly quick pizza sauce last night so all I needed to do is slather it onto the pizza base, bake it for 15 minutes in a hot 200C oven, sprinkle on some herbs, crush some pepper et voila! A super yummy dinner done in less than half an hour. :D

Here's what went into the pizza sauce:
4 Tomatoes
1/2 C Sun Dried Tomatoes
6-7 Cloves of Garlic
1/2 C Pecans
1/4 C Balsamic Vinegar
3 T Nutritional Yeast
1/2 t Jaggery
Chilli Powder
Salt
1/4 C Olive Oil
Rehydrate the sun dried tomatoes in 1/4 C warm water. Blend everything, except olive oil, together (including sun dried tomato water) into a smooth, creamy, slightly thick sauce.
Transfer to airtight container and add the olive oil on top. Mix well. Close lid and store in fridge for up to a week and use as required.
As always, I made this instinctively by throwing in handfuls and splashes so the quantities mentioned are indicative. Taste and adjust as you blend. Follow your tongue. :)

ReplyDeleteThis sounds likea really yummie quick sauce. We adore pizza here, and I always have a ready crust on hand in the freezer.
I am going to top with fresh basil julienne...
Thanks for sharing...

Fresh basil would be perfect for it, Shelly!
ReplyDeleteFor busy week nights, this sounds great! I love that you added sun dried tomatoes - those are my favorite. :)
