Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

2 cups coarsely chopped onion

1/2 cup vegetable stock or water

2 cloves garlic -- minced

1 1/2 cups diced carrots

4 cups chopped tomatoes

1 teaspoon sugar

2 tablespoons freshly chopped basil

2 tablespoons freshly chopped Italian parsley

salt

freshly ground black pepper

 

Braise the onions in the vegetable stock until translucent. Add the garlic and

cook further for about 1 minute. Add the carrots, continue cooking for about 5

minutes, then add the tomatoes and sugar. Cover and simmer over low to medium

heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the basil and simmer,

uncovered, for another 10 minutes. Transfer the sauce to a food processor,

blender, or food mill and puree. If you prefer a chunkier sauce, puree only

part of the sauce. Add the parsley and salt and pepper to taste. Serve.

 

Variation: Add your choice of fresh mushrooms when you add the tomatoes.

 

Description:

" The carrots lend a subtle sweetness to this very versatile sauce. You

can also pour it over pasta. "
