Answer 4

Start with finely diced onions sweated off in olive oil, add chopped garlic. Be careful not to let the garlic burn.
Then you can add:. Finely diced carrot, chopped tomatoes (preferably plum variety), a dash of balsamic vinegar or red wine, some fresh oregano and, just before serving a handful of fresh basil. Grow basil on the windowsill - slugs love it if you try to grow it in the garden.
Or 2: After the onions and garlic add small sprigs of broccoli and sliced, red chilli peppers. Season and add fresh coriander or flat leaf parsley. You'll need more olive oil in this sauce, but it's great.

Answer 5

Try this -
Liquidise tomatoes, add chopped onion and heat through in a pan. Add some herbs, garlic, and cubed Mozerella cheese with some grated parmesan cheese and lightly stir till melted. Add cooked pasta to the sauce then transfer into an oven proof dish. Top with grated cheddar and grill until the cheddar is golden. Serve with crusty bread.

Answer 6

Chicken or vegetable stock cube melted in hot water, add chopped onions, chopped tomatoes, garlic, black pepper, two large pinches of mixed herbs. Simmer for about 15 Min's and add to cooked pasta. Tip: if you like your sauces quite thick add some McDougals thickening granules which are on the market at the moment and can be used for savoury of sweet dishes to thicken them up. You can also add chicken or other meats it you wont to. Sheila.
