Homemade Rosee Sauce

 Homemade Rosee Sauce

Ingredients:

olive oil 

1 tsp dried basil 

1 tsp. dried thyme 

1 tsp. dried oregano 

1 tsp. dried parsley 

1/2 tsp. dried red pepper flakes 

2 large cloves minced garlic 

1 tomato passata 

1 can of diced tomatoes 

½ vegetable broth cube 

1 tbsp. sugar 

salt and pepper, to taste

large amount of pasta, of choice. I love penne with rosee sauce.

1 and a half boxes of belsoy 

½ cup apple juice or white wine

Directions:

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-low heat and add basil, thyme, oregano, parsley, garlic, and dried red pepper flakes. Stir together. 

 Add passata and diced tomatoes and bring to a boil, stirring well. Season.

Add veggie broth and sugar. Stir. 

 While the sauce is cooking, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside. 

 Reduce heat, add cream and wine. Bring close to a boil, stirring constantly. 

2024 update: I almost always make this sauce and then top off my plate with a sausage and parmesan.

I've edited the sauce a bit, I now start the first step by adding a caremelized red onion, and then I add the spices to it when the onion is fully cooked.

I also add 3-4 tablespoons of tomato paste with the other tomatoes to thicken it up.

I add a full vegetable broth cube.

The rest remains the same.  So much better with a few little changes :)
