3. Add vegetables (if not steaming) and sauté on for a further 5 minutes.

4. Add 2-3 cups of water and bring to the boil. Add salt and seasoning of choice you prefer and simmer the sugo / sauce on low for 15 min.

5. After the sugo has cooled, blend to achieve a smooth paste and return to the pan. Simmer on low for another 10 minutes. Taste and add seasoning if needed.

How to serve

Use as a sauce for pasta, on a pizza base or however you like.
