Servings: 2
Ingredients:
1 tbsp of water
Half a can of crushed tomatoes, or one diced tomato
1 onion, chopped and diced
1 tspn of crushed garlic
1 cup of peas, lentils or 1/2 cup of chickpeas or corn
Herbs: basil, oregano, thyme…whatever you prefer or have
Seasoning: pepper, low sodium salt
Directions:
1. Place the water into a saucepan so that it covers the base of the pan. Put on low heat until the water is simmering.
2. Place the chopped onion into the hot water until it has softened and the colour becomes transluscent. (at this point the water may have evaporated if the heat is too high, if so, add a little extra water or tomato juice)
3. Chuck in the crushed garlic and stir.
4. Pour in the half can of crushed tomato/ diced tomato and seasoning to the pot, stirring to incorporate all the ingredients.
(if diced tomato was used instead of crushed canned tomato, pour in a cup of water or enough to fill half the pot and a tbspn of tomato paste)
5. Throw in your pulses (peas, corn, chickpeas, lentils…whatever) and stir
6. Let the sauce simmer (approx 15 mins) until thick and fragrant, tearing the herbs into the pot a minute before removing it from the heat.
6. Serve on a bed of wild or brown rice, or eat on its own as a soup. Et Voila!
