Ingredients:

  • 2 Small Onions, peeled & cut into 2cm pieces
  • 1/2 a Fennel, cut into 2 1/2 cm pieces
  • 4 Garlic Cloves, peeled
  • 1/2 tsp Dried Oregano
  • 2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 2 x 400g Tinned Tomatoes, with juice
  • 20g Fresh Basil
  • 3 tbsp Dry White Wine
  • Salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper

Directions:

  1. Set up the large work bowl with the large chopping/mixing blade. Process the onion, fennel, garlic and oregano until finely chopped.
  2. Heat the oil in a saucepan over a medium heat, and add the onion & fennel mixture. Cook gently for 5 minutes, until the onions & fennel begin to soften and the oregano becomes fragrant.
  3. Add the tinned tomatoes, basil, wine and seasoning. Bring to the boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 45-50 minutes. Turn off the heat and leave to cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
  4. Place the sauce into the processor or using your 3 in 1 Hand Blender, pulse 15 times for a rustic sauce or process for 2 minutes for a smooth sauce.
  5. Serve with your favourite pasta.
