Answer 1

1st off let me just say i think when people ask for a recipe they are wanting to get 1 from someone who has actually tried the recipe and know its good , anyone is smart enough to look it up on the internet. it just bugs me when people say recipes .com or google .ghrrrr !

when i make pasta sauce i use about 10 red tomatoes
1/4 cup olive oil.. 2 small cans of tomaote paste , red wine , parmasan cheese or romano to taste and of course basil oregano rosemary, sounds simple yet its hard to improve something that is sooo simple and yummy to begin with ;o) my grandmother does something that adds alot of flavor , (and fat) she browns a small amount of beef or sausage and puts the drippings into the sauce like about 2 tbs it adds alot of flavor but as i said it adds fat too ;o) Enjoy

Answer 2

Serves - 5-6 Pasta .. Depends on how much you eat as a family.. Fry 2 chopped onions in a hot saucepan with some olive oil, add 2 (chopped up) chillies. Add more chillies if you like it hot!. After onions softened. Add 2 carrots cut into small cubes. Let these again slightly soften, after a while add in 5-6 mushrooms cut up, 3 peppers cut into small pieces, be colourful with your peppers, yellow, orange red!! Add in a small tin of sweetcorn Cook these for about 10 mins, before adding in two tins of chopped tomatoes, salt, pepper, some chili powder and a teaspoon of sugar. If you want add some of the juice of the tinned tomatoes into the pan while you are cooking them off prior putting the tomatoes in. I normally put some water in the tomato tins, about a quarter in each, swish it about, and chuck this into the pot, to get all the remaining tomato bits out of the tin. I let this simmer on a low heat for about 30-40 mins. Or if you in a hurry for a little less time. I like to cook it for longer as it gets rid of the acidity of the tomatoes out. Throw in some dried herbs at the end, taste it and add further salt, pepper, sugar if necessary. Stir in the pasta and serve. Yummy!! Also add in veggie mince after you put in the onions for a different twist!
