Creamy roasted tomato sauce

Serves: Makes approx. 1 litre sauce
Prep: 10
Cook: 40

    Roasting tomatoes is a quick and easy way to intensify their flavour, and So Good Unsweetened Almond milk helps create a rich and creamy sauce without the cream! This sauce is a great substitue to using jarred tomoato sauce and can keep in the fridge for 3-4 days. It's also a great way of using up any tomatoes you have in the fridge from the shop or garden. This source goes great with any lunch or dinner recipe where a tomato mixture is required. Being vegan and dairy free, it is a great source that everyone can enjoy. 

    Ingredients

    • 1 kg ripe tomatoes
    • 2 tbsp olive oil
    • 5 cloves garlic, peeled and trimmed
    • 1/2 cup So Good™ Unsweetened Almond Milk
    • 1 tsp dried Italian herbs
    • salt & pepper
    To Serve
    • pasta, cooked according to packet directions
    • fresh basil leaves
    • Parmesan or vegan Parmesan cheese, grated

    Method

    1. Step 1

      Preheat oven to 160°C. Slice the tomatoes into quarters and place them cut-side down, in a single layer, on a large baking dish or a rimmed oven tray.
    2. Step 2

      Add garlic cloves to the tomatoes, drizzle ingredients with olive oil, and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper.
    3. Step 3

      Roast for approx. 40 minutes, stirring half way through, until the tomato juices have started to reduce and the garlic is golden.
    4. Step 4

      Cool slightly, then transfer tomatoes, garlic, and all pan juices to a blender or food processor. Pulse tomato mixture until smooth, add So Good almond milk and herbs and pulse again. Season to taste if necessary.
    5. Step 5

      Serve over pasta, with fresh basil and Parmesan.

    Tips

    • Sauce can be stored in a covered container in the fridge for 3–4 days and substituted wherever you’d use jarred tomato sauce. Gently re-heat on the stovetop, but don’t bring to a boil.
    • If using cherry tomatoes, halve instead of quartering.
