This recipe is very easy to make, and seems to have hardly any ingredients, but it does not lack in flavour.
INGREDIENTS (Makes 1 jar)
8 ripe Roma tomatoes (this is a great way to use up tomatoes on the turn)
2 tablespoons of garlic infused olive oil
500ml cold water
1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
2 teaspoons of maple syrup
Pinch of Himalayan pink sea salt
Freshly cracked black pepper
METHOD
Preheat oven to 200 degrees celsius, and using a large baking tray, using a sharp knife, cut a cross in the core end of the tomato, place in the baking tray and drizzle with olive oil and give a light season. The scoring of the tomatoes will stop them from exploding.
Roast for 45 minutes, until tender but still holding their shape.
When the tomatoes are ready, remove from the oven. Heat as large deep frying pan, and add the garlic infused olive oil. Add all the tomatoes whole, and using a masher, gently break them up and continue to mash gently ensuring the tomatoes break down well. Be gentle so the hot tomatoes don't spurt and burn you.
Add the water and nutritional yeast, stir and turn down to a low-medium heat and simmer for 30 minutes, ensuring you stir quite regularly to make sure it continues to thicken, but doesn't dry out and or burn. If it becomes a too thick and dry, add some more water (add a little at a time).
After 3o minutes of cooking, season with salt and pepper, add the balsamic vinegar, maple syrup and stir. Turn the heat down to low, and simmer for another 15 minutes.
Using a clean glass jar, transfer the hot sauce (when it's ready) into the jar, and whilst it is hot, place the lid on and set aside. The hot contents automatically sterilises the jar, saving you time.
