A creamy tomato sauce flavoured with vodka.
Our cousins José and François gave me this recipe.
1 tbsp | olive oil | 15 mL | |
1/2 | onions, finely chopped | 100 g | |
1 clove | garlic, pressed or minced | ||
1 cup | strained tomatoes | 260 g | |
1 pinch | salt [optional] | 0.2 g | |
ground pepper to taste [optional] | |||
1/4 cup | whipping cream 35% | 65 mL | |
1/4 cup | vodka, or to taste | 65 mL |
A blender or food processor will be very useful to purée the sauce.
This sauce can be stored up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator; up to 3 months in the freezer.
I didn't have fresh garlic so I used garlic powder and pasta seasoning from Victorian Epicure instead. Worked wonderfully!
