Receta Crushed Greek tomato and olive oil sauce
Pomodoro style sauce with black olives, capers and chillies adding subtle character.
Rich stewed tomato depth of flavour freshened with the addition of tomato puree or pasatta at the very end of the cooking to refine.
Great with pasta, as a base for braising vegetables with the addition of a little stock or as a condiment to meat, fish and chicken.
Very versatile!
