노트

This tomato sauce is such a useful recipe to have on hand – and because you’re making it at home you avoid all the additives and excessive sugars in some other versions. It will keep in the fridge for a couple of days as well, so you can prepare it in advance.

Serve this sauce with twice-cooked hand cut chips, herby panko-crumbed fish and pink mayo for a healthy version of Friday night fish and chips – a Kiwi classic that the kids will love!
