Best 4 Slow Roasted Tomato Sauce Recipes

SLOW ROASTED PORK WITH COCONUT CURRY SAUCE, CORN TORTILLAS, FRESH TOMATO SALSA OVER BASMATI RICE

Steps:

• For the pork: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Rub the spices into the pork and roast for about 8 hours. Let cool. Pull apart and discard any fat. Put the pork pieces in a large pot and add the coconut milk.
• Meanwhile, for the curry sauce: Saute the curry paste, ginger, garlic, and black beans in sesame oil until fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. Add this mixture to the pot with the pork and coconut milk. Add the lime leaves. Braise on low heat for 1 to 2 hours.
• For the rice: Blend the cilantro, jalapeno, garlic, and 1 cup of water. Put this mixture in a pot on the stove. Add the basmati rice. Add 2 1/2 cups water. Bring to a boil, and then simmer, covered, until the rice absorbs the liquid, 20 to 25 minutes. When done, add the butter and salt and pepper, to taste.
• For the salsa: Roast the jalapeno and poblano peppers, peel, and remove the seeds. Toast the cumin seeds and then grind. Dice the tomatoes and red onion and mix together in a bowl with the other salsa ingredients.
• Heat the corn tortillas on a griddle. Plate the rice, put the pork with sauce on top, and finish with salsa and tortillas.

SLOW-ROASTED TOMATO SAUCE WITH PASTA

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Drain the tomatoes, then transfer them to a baking sheet. Gently break the tomatoes up with your hands or kitchen scissors into a mix of big and little chunks. Stir in the garlic, olive oil, hot sauce, if using, and salt.
• Roast, stirring occasionally (and more frequently after the first hour of cooking), until the tomatoes turn dark red and the edges begin to caramelize, about 2 hours. Mash with a fork to break up the garlic and any remaining chunks of tomato.
• Bring a large pot or Dutch oven of heavily salted water to the boil. Cook your pasta al dente according to package directions. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta water, and drain the pasta. Return the pot to the stove, turn the heat to medium-high, then add the tomato sauce and 1/2 cup of pasta water. Let simmer until combined, glossy and saucy, about a minute or 2, adding more pasta water as needed. Add the pasta and toss to coat.

SLOW-ROASTED TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
• Whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, garlic, and basil.
• Pour half of this mixture onto a cookie sheet and spread it around.
• Place tomatoes cut-side down on cookie sheet on top of the oil blend.
• Drizzle tomatoes with remaining oil, then sprinkle with the maple sugar and salt.
• Bake slowly in oven at 300 degrees for 3 hours.
• Blend or process when done.
• Serve hot over pasta, rice, or white beans (If you don't have 3 hours, you can roast them at 400 for 30 to 45 minutes or broil for 15 minutes, but it won't taste the same).

SLOW-ROASTED TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Cut the tomatoes into chunks and spread out on a half-sheet baking pan. Sprinkle chopped garlic and basil all over the tomatoes. Pour oil lightly over the tomatoes. Sprinkle a little salt and pepper over everything. Place baking sheet in oven and try not to go crazy from the incredible aroma. Check the tomatoes after about 2 hours to make sure they're not burning. If they haven't gotten any blackening at all, let them go for another hour or two, checking occasionally. Four hours should be more than enough time. When the tomatoes are done to your liking, remove from oven and process them through a food mill to remove seeds and skins. If you don't have a food mill, try pressing the tomatoes through a mesh sieve using a rubber spatula. Pour tomato pulp into a large saucepan and add vermouth/wine, then add water to reach desired consistency (probably anywhere from 2-4 cups). Bring this to a boil, reduce to simmer, and cook for an hour. Once this sauce is done, you can use it as the base for further additions for pasta or pizza sauce as you like. I am going to add some oregano and thyme to this for sauce to pour over cheesy polenta and Italian sausages for dinner.
